BRANDED
Who are you wearing?
Whose name’s on your shirt?
What’s on your label,
your purse, and your skirt?
Where did you buy that, and
where was it made?
Is it a knock-off?
How much have you paid?
Did you go shopping
or order by mail?
Visit an outlet store?
Find a good sale?
Did a designer
initial your dress?
Is that a Gucci?
Oh wait, let me guess!
What’s in your closet?
Did you pay enough?
Or did you just order
a bunch of cheap stuff?
Can you keep up with
her wardrobe, or mine?
Is yours generic,
or top of the line?
What does it say
on the soles of your shoes?
Do you insist on
the higher-priced booze?
Are your kids’ crayons
imported from France?
Do you have signatures
sewn on your pants?
Black Friday is here!
(so the ad-man demands) …
but can you imagine
a world without brands?
