Fashion divas in leather and fur
their stiletto black high heels tapping.
Men in their armani suits and pants
with fancy cufflinks and ties to match.
The usual throng in hats and boots
their cowboy gait leisurely strolling.
Some in sneakers, designer ripped jeans
drenching the aisles with a mix of style.
Every day at around noon, the scene
becomes surreal and frankly frenzied.
The foodcourt is jam packed to the hilt
perfumes and food scent tantalizes.
Diamonds and gold, there they sparkle
dazzling eyes and emptying pockets
embellishing necks and wrists, chaining
fingers and ankles, dainty or not.
On sale or overpriced fluff in one,
haute couture over there. The classic
lines and avant-garde are also here
where the rich and the ordinary
almost touch, remain disconnected.
Galleria Dallas welcomes all,
and like kindred spirits, they pass through.
To shop perhaps, maybe fill the void
of a prosaic yet fast paced life.
