A woman's perfect night
clothed in a white dress
none are blue with matching glass slippers
none gleam with extravagance and color
or flame with flowing red
all look the same
with no polka dots
no stripes or lines
none expressive
none different
but dull
the same as their mothers was
the same as their grandmothers was
the same plain look
the same plain feeling
taking away from true character
introducing a lie
