The Necessary Garment
‘Friend, how did you get in here
without a wedding garment?’
Matthew 22:12
They say I dress well, even elegant. I say
it is by instinct and morphology. Some have the gift,
others clearly do not.
Yet at this church festival where
some seem suitably clad,
why do I linger among the rest, unsure
that I am wearing the necessary garment?
