In Verse
I ran into you...
I was wearing my red dress
And looking like a goddess
And knowing every man
In the room thought so.
And you thought so-even when it did not
Matter. Even though you forgot I was a goddess
When it counted.
Even though the woman you were with
Wore too much jewelry and was too slick.
I danced in my red dress. And it no longer
Mattered that your eyes followed me
Two beats behind.
