Girls Just Wanna . . .

A pair of dark pointed high heels drawn on a piece of lined paper.

Back in New York

ready to try again

show everyone

I’ll do something

special with my life.

Through with guys,

Crystal and I declare

GIRL’S!! NIGHT!! WOO!!

Click click click into clubs

in sky-high heels

each of us six feet tall.

Collecting attention

and free drinks.

Some nights we wear

fake diamond rings

feign engagement

to be left alone.

Others, we chase meaningless kisses

skillfully sucking face with the faceless.

“Chicks Before Dicks,” our mantra,

I am finally “Super Chick”

as I drink away my suspicion that

deep down

I’m just chasing

that intoxicating

first hit kiss high from Jonathan.

A ring with a circular gemstone.
