Outing

The closet went out to dinner
With the cloaks and the ties
Nothing special really
Just a suit and tie
But the tie went missing
Looking for an affair
With the socks
It was hot for a moment
Both fell dirty panting
Over.
The closet wants to move on
But stayed put
It's a containment issue
The other closets wanted to peer in
But it was not their custom
Against their bylaws
So they went away
Leaving the closet alone
As it was accustomed
The other clothing hung drawn
Peering expectantly
Feeling put on
Waiting
For the next affair.
