Terrible Ted

It was Terrible Ted The Tailor
who had gone and stitched me up,
a seamless operation
invisible you might say.

he took me to the cleaners
then hung me out to dry,
now it seems my life is
hanging on the line.

Good one. The life of a piece of clothing. Enjoyable poem.

A little more than a piece about a suit, I feel. Tailors were never to be trusted - all that inside leg stuff and, 'Suits you, sir,' never washed with me. Besides, I get my suits from Tesco or Asda.

Bernie, I enjoyed the play on/with words and it raised a smile and caused a chuckle. Job done. 
 
All the best, 
Steve.
