ODE TO MY BLUE

(jeans)

I’ll wear them with me

Woven can be my wild

The old blues

Made into new hues

This is the naked

I will become

A kind of weight

That will never whine

Willing to dig down

Deeper

Into the holes and cracks

I shape

Into whatever shade is given

Call me a cowboy

Call me a wrangler

Or call me a woman

Dressed to impress

As I wander

Won’t you follow

My blues

I’ll bring them

Never

Hollow
