we're waiting in the closet

my shirts,
my ties, my suits, the dress
pants
and shiny
shoes
and boots, all of them
stare back at me
and wonder why
i never put them on
anymore.
isn't there a wedding or
a funeral
to attend, 
some fancy show?
i hear them
talking about me at night,
in whispers.
asking each
other,
why.
