Default A Date

A wire plugs into a socket
Quickly dirt and soils from shoes fill up a vacuum bucket
I reach for my keys down in my pocket
Its not there, it’s lost somewhere on my key locket
I then ponder on how to get wine out of the cellar
As I check behind my collection of bestsellers
Time ticks on the oven
Tomato paste stains my clothing
What dessert have I chosen

The door bell rings
The deliverer walks in with a box of chicken and onion rings
A smile to my face he brings
But I could only tip him a dollar cause I had to treat my queen
And pleasantly in the air I could smell the sweet aroma of the food I was cooking
Green beans, green peas, hot gravy, and everything that my mouth was craving

I dressed the table in pink
Which happens to be my lady’s favorite color, I think
I took off and threw my gloves in the sink
Took out the garbage for it was beginning to stink
I rinsed out some new china plates I had never used
I set them down on the table like tools
I checked my watch and 6pm was fast approaching
It’s late & my beef is still roasting

I quickly arranged the cutleries on the table
I turned on the TV “Love Jones” was on cable
‘Larentz Tate wakes up and decides to cook Nia long some eggs and tomatoes’
Oh Damn, I have gotten carried away, I forgot to mix up the mashed potatoes
I ran to the bathroom to take a shower
You know a man has to be clean before he devours

I sprayed a little cologne on my attire
I was dressed completely in Eddie Bauer
It’s 7 o’ clock & time for my date
I feel happy cause I think I’ve found my mate
The phone rings and my girl’s number shows up
I picked up, ‘Babe what’s up’
‘I can’t make it again Toks I’m sorry
Yeah I understand, life is full of stories

Karma’s gonna get me, I know this but I cant stop…
All guilt I feel jolts out every time our eyes lock
She’s everything I want in a woman and a whole lot more
The type I’ve spent my whole life trying to avoid
My heart beats faster, I’m very paranoid.
He might see us, She might see us
I take a deep breath, ‘calm down…’
She digs in her purse, pulls out her phone…
As she pushed the buttons, each tone
Tore me down, but then I look at her
In the tight black dress, and a body to die for
And my priorities get jumbled up.
Enough to have me knee deep in this triangle..

She’s so calm, she’s done this before.
She’s finished dialing, now it’s the pause
I’m so nervous,
But I force out a smile, pretend everything is alright
Tho..I cant help but think I shouldn’t be out on this stormy night
Everything around us says No, but here we are
I cant do it, I turn to tell her “we probably…..”
She puts her finger on her lips to “sheesh” me..
“hey whats up baby” he says…
and without a worry, she replies
“I can’t make it again today, I’m sorry”
yup
karma’s gonna get me, I know….but I really cant stop
Cuz all guilt I feel jolts out every time our eyes lock.

Its 7:30 and there is food lying in front of me but no appetite
I can’t take a bite, I blew out the candles cus I can’t take the light
It’s still a young night
So I have to get out and get my head on right
Nah, I’ll just stay home
Doubt I’ll answer my phone
I bet she’ll soon call to make up, but I’ll rather be alone
So I walk to the balcony to stare at the ozone

And like I thought, my home phone rang
Oh it’s Steve, I’m like, ‘Yo what’s up, let’s hang”
He’s like, “Dude what u doing home, dang”
“Thought you’ll be somewhere with your girl holding hands”
Oh her I said, nah dawg, she couldn’t make it yet again
Never mind her, I need to get out and chug down some champagne
Anything to wash away my pain
Yeah I’m not much of a drinker, but I’ll take whatever my body can sustain

We arrived an hour later at club Hypnotic
I’ve never been here before but mehn was it exotic
The setting was so romantic and the ladies erotic
I should have thought of this before, I’m so idiotic
Steve then ordered a ‘Blue MuthafucCer’ and asked if I concur
I said I’ll take anything then proceeded to the dance floor
A couple of drinks and everything started to seem a blur
Then I saw another of my boys, and just when salutations were about to occur
I saw HER

a couple glasses of martini later
i think i'm feeling a little better...
i stare at her beautiful brown eyes..
and her angelic smile draws me closer
i run my fingers through her hair and down under her chin
dazed by the club lights bouncing off her clear caremel skin
all worries are gone, or atleast secondary to her sight
she leans even closer to me and whispers..
"i'd love atleast one dance tonight"

she leads me through the crowd onto the dance floor
she puts my hand around her waist and hers around my neck
we're moving slowly to the rythm of the beat
then she moves in for a peck..
her soft lips on mine, all emotions fell in line
absoulutely nothing could ruin this moment.
i could be here forever....

"No way" i whisper..as he's making his way through the smokes
all my prayers couldn't change who it was..."its toks"
his excitement to see me slowly simmers down..
smile turned to frown, when she turned around
i could hear, see and feel his heart break
felt like a nightmare, only this time i'm fully awake.....
