Wait a minute - I was in Detroit in the 70's and NONE of us wore bras! How come we didn't get arrested? lol! Must be we weren't singin' the right songs! Fun piece here, Uriah, and a typically male perspective! Linda

Don't know what spirit this poem was intended but, it seemed harmless enough. I'm all for freedom of dress, etc.. Thanks for the vote! ;)
Uriah, you certainly know how to keep abreast of the times? Well done.
This one made me laugh. Rickie Lee Jones! Chuck E's in Love! Wow...haven't thought of her in a long time. Although, I'd rather not think about her bra... :) But I liked the poem. Not the same old same old. Something fun and smiley!
Nice poem, Uriah. This conversational style is your forte`, especially in a poem with this subject matter. Thanks for the mammeries..err...memories.
it reminds me of a quote i once heard: 'i'd like a woman's mind more if it bounced gently when she walked.' yes, as said by linda, a very typical male perspective. eni da kid
