Outside the fitting room of some department store,
Beneath florescent skies, I bide my time and sit,
With listless eyes, I stretch my legs and pace the floor,
And pray inside you'll find the rare, elusive, fit.
Although it tries my patience as I'm waiting here,
The moment that you re-emerge and smile is worth,
Far more than every occupation I hold dear,
And any time I have to spend upon this earth.
