Local Lines
Highs and lows
High fashion dictates the wearing of low-rise jeans favouring the lanky, the svelte while the rest of us suffer slipped strides all day
The high end of town favours low wages to steady the ship even though the weight leans down their end
Easy access low-rise beds have bitten the dust in favour of Kosciuskos requiring nightly scaling to meet the mattress
Fewer than one in five of us now drives a sedan Big Boy SUVs rule and roll But proportions swing Peaks may yet topple

Bill drives low, wears semi-high and sleeps low by preference.
