I’m in love.
Not with you, per se, but with the way you release. You tore the Tabernacle up Saturday night at FunkJazz Kafé. And when your bobbie pin popped out and that crazy little afro bun of yours started waving at me all the way in the back by the bar where I was tossing back Long Island Iced Teas, I felt like we were connected as one. Did you feel it, too? I used to have a crush on Dawn from EnVogue, but I forgot all about her performance when you came back out for an encore.
Next to you, Bone Crusher’s belly was only the second biggest thing in the house that night. Keep banging.
