A Good Fit

Some jeans fit quite nicely
Hugging the rounds of the thighs
gently compressing at the knee
comfortably clung to the calf
and finally relaxing at the ankles

Though, consider first the fabric
After-all, there are many types of denim
different dyes and eclectic washes
And not everyone sews similar seems
Cheap pairs often fall apart quite easily

Finding the right fit is a challenge 
Sure, I'm a 34 x 34 when I stand
But, I become a 34 x 36 when I sit
So I need jeans that contour to me
And not the other way around

You're a jagged edge
a smooth, and lovely cliff,
off of which, I am anxious
to dive.

You are the wind
the deafening, whisling,
screaming, amorphous whisper
absorbed.
