| What is the proper attitude | |
| one assumes | |
| when shopping for a breast? | |
| Naming it a prosthesis | |
| may be more dignified | |
| but in my mind the two | |
| do not equate. | |
| Just walk right up and say, | |
| "I need a ....a...a....." | |
| Does one confront this task | |
| -seriously? | |
| -jokingly? | |
| -alone? | |
| Remember when I | |
| -hid behind towels? | |
| -coughed in church to | |
| avoid saying that word? | |
| -ordered a chicken leg | |
| when I really wanted | |
| a....a.....a..... | |
