Each year I rummage through my closet Greens and reds and blacks I throw things away, deciding that light pink makes my skin look blotchy I realize that shades of green help highlight the gold in my hair I get rid of things that fit me too tightly on the arms Or things full of dryer lint that no longer serve the look I’m going for As I get rid of some things I make a plan for how I’m going to replace them I sit back and admire my my work Yep, no pink. Yep, no wrinkly collars. A new colour scheme for another year
