I Have a Coat

I have a coat now. It was purchased at the local Goodwill Retail Store for a scant $8.00. This coat is soft black, and has some sort of quilted texture. The buttons are too big and the sleeves are too short.

Let us reflect, though, for a moment, on how this coat makes me feel. I feel strangely elegant in this coat, and often put it on just to spend long moments lingering in front of my mirror, surveying my sophistication.

This coat makes me feel whole.

The possibilities are endless when I wear this coat. I could be strolling into a theater in Times Square, or dumpster diving behind the Circle K. That's what I love about this coat.

Everyone should have an item of clothing that transforms the psyche.
