&quot;Being well-dressed is not a matter of having expensive clothes or the &#039;right clothes. I don&#039;t care if you&#039;re wearing rags, but they must suit you.&quot;<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Louise Nelson

The pounding of the stranger knocking on my door
Echoed in my nervous head
Bang bang bang
The man was dressed in black
His hair slicked back
And a mask
Covered his eyes
Malice embraced his figure
And he laughed as he narrated
The glee of locking me
In and iron cage
