A fine accent

I do not look

so very attractive.

I do not show

a modern way.

When I entered

your room, you see, it.

I do not talk

in a sexy language

by silent, smooth rhythms.

As I asked, not to stop,

you would not glance.

I show a story,

in my way

of clothes,

a family tradition.

The accent was hardly noticed.
