Work bibs: a pocket watch and a DeKalb bullet pencil with a little metal cap. Shirtsleeves rolled to the elbow. A Pioneer seed corn cap. Tired leather work boots Rockford socks.
Dress bibs: New ones,
after showering in the cellar,
good enough for company,
opening Christmas gifts
even if your mother-in-law is there,
savoring a game featuring Johnny Unitas.
