Get Set Go

Picked that black dress

and wore the bloodiest lip-color

to go that fancy address.

No no no…

I didn’t miss

the latest lingo,

or the guilty gossip,

along with two vodka hits.

Yes, I took time

to choose my mist and smile.

Oh my my..

But I forgot to hide

my same old

sad eyes.

And yet again,

I felt left alone

among the clowned crowd.
