The Truth About Bra Straps

Victoria has a secret,

and now it's high time

to get this off her chest:

for what seems an eternity

she's endured them.

 

Far from supporting or uplifting,

instead they get under her skin.

If she lets them slide on the job,

it only makes for awkward

adjustments later.

 

Still, they used to adore her,

shoulder-to-shoulder,

now they're a form of torture.

True, they were never an exact fit,

but sometimes they worked wonders.

 

Now, they make subtle digs at first,

but by day's end

they've always left their mark.

It's said to keep one's friends close

but one's enemies even closer,

and that's no stretch.

 

Maybe it's time to string 'em up and free the ******
