Improv - Natasha Trethewey, "Blond"

earlier today,
i’m bold ‘nuff to say
a black woman asked
if…
my eyes were
real
well this is genuine blue,
miss sugarboo
don’t look too close now
you might try n’…

cop a
feel

oh me, oh my
these eyes won’t lie
if you sidle up,
and…

try to
steal

a piece of this pie
darlin’, don’t try
to melt my knees
“Oh please?”
this fella ain’t free.
