what is the secret
of the little black dress

to reveal
the darker vixen
prowling slowly
inviting nibbles
daring
every proximate manfool to try

or simply
expediency
a sophisticated functionality
while still charming the appropriate occasioners
downtown or up

undoubtedly, I am way off the mark
but then again,
I am often perplexed by simplicty
