A Diva's Views

Born and raised in the South Bronx, New York (USA) I figured some thoughts, words, and musings of me would be entertaining- particularly because I say what I mean and of course I mean what I say. Yes, I am an educated African-American woman. Yes, I am a poet. Yes, I am emotional. Yes, I am strong. Yes, I am opinionated. Yes, I am single. Yes I am an avid drinker of coffee. Yes I am in constant struggle- oh and I can not spell, so don't judge [ok maybe a bit] Don't be scared, just be willing

This is... is this?

This is
Exactly why I do not go out... and by out I mean out to the club settings.
Most of the club settings I have recently been setting in involve me standing in heels
(looking extra cute)
but painfully aware of the things that are going on around me.

Like for example the wonderful colors of the band launch
and seeing all the colors of Bermuda
meeting NY people in a rooftop bar in NY.
And seeing the married man
causally and not so subtly
checking out the other married man
who is standing with his wife at the bar.

His hand on her lower back.
She is chatting away with some girl there
and he is making sexy eyes at dude.
Interesting.
And she is none the wiser.
More interesting
And the wedding ring is nice,
but it is just an adornment
[kinda like their marriage I assume].
And I go to the bar.
Get me a cool drink.
Drink.
