A Half Made Dress



A half made dress filled with pins and pictures.

Pictures of women of friends and of sisters.

They are put in a way that only eyes can tell,

that there is more to it than just a dress.

Old photographs of women close together.

They are put in a fashion like plaid, like fabric.

Pins, needles aligned closely without interruption.

Close as if they were the girls in the pictures.

Put together to form a half made dress.

It is a dress not worn now a day it is,

a dress worn by these women, these gal pals.

In the pictures the women are all smiling.

A dress, a dress that is smiling back at me.
