I wore my clothes today
My clothes
That one greenish sweater
with all the holes

I might as well be
an atheist or a Clemson fan
crimes comparable
to wearing vans

In South Carolina
you follow the rules
unless it comes
to racism and *****

Don’t you dare look like you tried
It’s sports chic
and southern tide

You better have an excuse
for choosing to be you
“I had to wear this dress,
it’s laundry day”

If you ask me
why I’m dressed a certain way
I’ll probably just respond
“*******”
