On a dare
I slunk by you
smoky eyeliner
tight jeans
pierced belly
Took a stool
Bartender
I’ll have
what
he has
on him
Watched you
in the mirror
crowded by bottles
You glanced
I wet my lips
Hey baby
you said
Hey baby
I said
my best
bedroom voice
Come
a little bit closer
Tonight I’m feeling
a
bit
felonious.
