city lights and slippery streets
madonna classics and brown beards swaying
beauty bar bursting with skinny jeans hugging white hipsters
six steps away lies a closeted bar
traditional african hang out infiltrated by mocked fedoras and terrible spastic dancing
hodge podge of forced space sharing
with perplexed black faces and wanna be black white faces
dancing to slowed down MIA beats so their hips can catch up
witnessing white people dance to anything remotely brown
brings images of monkeys trying to act human
clumsy, awkward, and dangerous
