in response to this...
when he walked in,
i wished i hadn't come
with this clown.
we met in the kitchen
a few times
seeking to refresh drinks
or a break from the music.
but tipsy, too loud guests
prevented casual conversation openings.
later,
when he laughs at someone's joke,
i fantasize about kissing his smile--
until i'm distracted by
my date's over-eager hands
in all the wrong places.
next time
our homeboy throws a party
i'm following his lead
and coming alone...
