Steppers

A confident            
Cigarette              
Watched me-              
Being              
Passed around              
From man to man              
In its earrings              
On the dance floor              
Like                
Wild game              
Sent in              
For the retrieval              
Of something              
Lost            
Like femininity              
Made impotent          
With my focus                
On hair              
Standing in              
For the rest of the night              
And ice cold  
Signals              
Allowing              
Enough              
Transition                
Time/              
Withholding              
Blanket                
Statements              
From              
Soul              
Afraid                
Of making              
1 single mistake              
In DK pumps         
Doing it:              
Ear tug meant             
Turn.              
Eye wipe meant        
Dip.              
Lip bite meant             
Reverse.              
Open blouse meant           
Switch      
(As in find another "John")                    
Only to scoop me up              
When I was              
Worn out              
(From having sex              
With her            
Around each one of em)              
By strangers:              
Turn, dip, reverse, switch                      
Made to take up              
That final round              
In freestyle              
With her.
