WHAT NOT TO WEAR
Abercrombie and Fitch Will Pay Situation
to Stop Wearing Its Clothes – US Magazine
I’ve been actively not wearing A&F
$70 t-shirts and not wearing A&F $70
sweatpants, as well as $50 Hollisters
that are curiously similar. As for the
jeans slung over the shoulder of the
naked model in the A&F catalog, I especially
like to not wear those while getting paid
by the government to not grow corn
while not carrying an A&F moose print
Cute Preppy Tote. I’ve been not wearing
A&F for decades, will forgive old arrears
for one years’ payment at The Situation’s rate.
Bio: Glenn Cassidy is a previous contributor to Wild Goose Poetry Review. He lives in Raleigh, NC, where he coordinates a local reading series.
I heard Glenn read this at either the Lazy Lion Bookstore in Fuquay-Varina or at the Royal Bean in Raleigh. Whichever it was, I liked it so much that I asked him if I could use it in Wild Goose. I still love it, as I love most of Glenn’s observations of our quirkiness. He is astutely aware of the illogic and more than occasional injustice of our society. Bravo!
Thanks, Scott. We all step up our game at the local readings when the out-of-town talent is in the room.
