In response to prompt here:

I didn’t follow this prompt completely as this wasn’t based on personal experience

I was wooed by the glow of her velveteen thighs
And the way her lips teased her cigarillos

She, I mean he, thought that I knew by the narrowness of his hips
And that imitation Nina Simone voice
