Original DDE™ surrealistic art: “To the 9’s” by: rob kistner © 3/18/24
S harp dressed dude
in a felt chapeau
deepest red
as fine Bordeaux
french-cuff ivory shirt
soft as cream dessert
red linen coat
double-breasted
uptown savvy
teal velvet-vested
tan gabardine slacks
3-pleated right
sunshine satin tie
knotted tight
lookin’ like jazz-age Paris
on Saturday night

I would love to see my husband in such attire, Rob, but he just loves his tatty old jeans and t-shirt too much. I, on the other hand, try to smarten up a little.
I love the similes in your quadrille, especially ‘lookin’ like jazz-age Paris on Saturday night’.
Thank you Kim… I was feeling nostalgic for the swingin’ jazz age… 🙂
I imagine jazz clubs with dim lights and sharp dressed musicians and patrons. Everyone dancing to that jazzy beat.
Ah Paris, I have always wanted to go there.
How are you, my friend? It has been a while. Covid caught up with me and knocked me out for weeks.
Is that one of your digital artworks?
So so sorry the COVID got you True. I sympathize. It was pretty shitty. Hope you are feeling better my fridnd! 🙂 Yes, that is my digital image. Since 2nd half of last year, I am only using my original digital extrapolations. I will continue using only my original images on my Image & Verse site into the future.
You are very talented, love your digital artwork
It has been terrible Rob ….
Nice to read your words, again
Thank you True, I genuinely appreciate your kind uplifting comments my friend, so very sorry the COVID hit you hard. It just doesn’t seem to be going away.
Oh! I especially love that “sunshine satin tie.” This whole poem is luscious.
Thank you De… 🙂
Well! You got this challenge down-pat perfect! The quadrille, the image, the music. Zoot suits and voodoo.
Digga digga dooo! 😉
Jazz-aged Paris… ha! I had to dress in a Zoot Suit for my freshman initiation in high school, but I was nowhere as Zootie as this guy.
That’s fun Judy, at least I hope it was fun… 😉
I think I need to go to a tailor and find me some new clothes.
Gotta be a sharp dressed man Björn… 😉

He is definitely a sharp dressed man Rog… 😉
