When are accessories just a little too much? ?

Question

*****

IF THE THING CATCHES A FLY

I MIGHT NOT MAKE IT

I tried to casually chat with her,

but the live lizard on her shoulder was distracting.

She was a charming girl,

a regular walking zoo. I half expected a bird

to fly out of her hat.

I tried not to smile, but as she spoke,

the little bug-eyes kept

roaming around the room.

I know I heard her name three or four times,

She’ll always be Lizard-Girl to me.

Answer 6

That's an everyday thing here in Florida...even Grace has been known to accessorize with geckos,  one decided to fight back and clamped onto her ear.  I figured if the lizard wanted to be an earring, I would not interfer..

Accessories are too much when they need their own accessories.
