Lady Luck

Just for fun...

First I put on my silk
black stockings..
Gilding them up carefully..
I want to look perfect.
to all who I see..
then my black skirt..
goes just below the thigh..
accentuating my legs..
I am going out for a good time..
Next my shimmering
black and gold top..
tight with just the right
amount of cleavage..
My auburn hair
I decide to leave down.
a mass of thick curls
falling down my back..
Tonight is a fun night..
No reason to pull it up..
Tonight I will be dancing..
Tonight I am lady luck..
I check my make up..
grab a matching purse..
step into my black
suede heels..
Now I am ready
to do as I please..
I go to a club..
Unescorted as I love..
In a strange city..
In a strange state..
I am now who I choose to be..
Feeling sexy..
Feeling free..
I walk in
feel eyes upon me..
Ahhh, but I am not here for love..
I am here to feel
the independence.
that comes with walking
in alone..
I know this scares many..
but it only sets me free..
walking among strangers..
all eyes on me.
I am here just for a good time..
I don't accept drinks from any man..
this angers them..
Why?
I don't understand..
So I buy them a drink..
to nurse their bruised ego's..
They just don't know..
I am not here for love
I am here to let go..
I just want to dance..
Have fun..
Yes..
Maybe I am being
a bit of a tease..
But tonight..
I am lady luck..
I can do as I please!
