Rowens, I agree with your thesis on the abusurdity of uniforms. I would not be caught dead in one of those bicyclists outfits. They are like wearing a Devo hat and a woman's leotard that has a stuffed Mickey Mouse sown into the crotch!
I liked the poem alot and related to it from the first stanza to the penultimate one. However, that last stanza fell apart for me. 'Victorious' on Nickelodeon is unrelatable; probably 9 out of 10 never heard of it. It may be a hispanic show, but the reference to the Mexican teen and kids is out of place with the piece as well. You, at home, watching Star Trek, fanatasizing to be Captain Kirk, or someother highly familiar show with a crazy uniform woven into the fabric of it, would work much better in my view.
