In pursuit of
an indescribable
quality, hipsters
search for vintage
as if past
holds spice
not easily found
in present.
Without pretending
to be ancient, still
obsessed with
their own youth,
they adorn firm wrists
with patina-dull watches
they will overwind
and deck taut throats
with cameos
as if those permanent
faces could mask
how their own
will soon droop
and vanish
into that same past
they revere
