In the Dressing Room: A Prose Poem #7\/24<\/p>\n
\u201cWe still have a pay phone back by the three bathroom stalls with the doors removed cause someone got caught smoking weed or doing coke or something else equally bad in there but the girls in this place don\u2019t really care cause there\u2019s nothing to hide around here other than your money and you better keep that in a place no one can get at or you\u2019ll be leaving here with tears running down your young and disillusioned face broke as when you came in so you\u2019ll be smart not to trust any of the girls and don\u2019t loan them your stuff or you won\u2019t get it back–here you go! here\u2019s a locker you can use just don\u2019t leave nothin\u2019 important in it if you don\u2019t have a lock cause you can leave your things and your money with the house mom who\u2019s right over there on the other side of the dressing room. Up those stairs and through that curtain there is the main stage and you\u2019re up first so you better get dressed–My name\u2019s Exotica. Good luck out there, girl.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
