Lisa And Sue's Night Out Poem by Elisabeth Wingle

Lisa And Sue's Night Out

Rating: 5.0


Dinner's over, dishes are done
Time to go and have some fun
Curl your hair and paint your face
A little perfume, a little lace

Pick up Sue and off we go
Tonight we'll find our Romeos
We walk in and feel the beat
I know tonight we'll move our feet

The first place we stop, is in the john
We have to see if our lipstick's on!
'What do you think? Do I look alright? '
'You look fine! Are my jeans too tight? '

'Do you wanna, get some beer? '
'Oh my God! Look who's here! '
'Come on Lisa, lets dance! ! Please! '
'I think I'm turning Japanese! '

Off to bogie, bump and grind
Here come our stalkers, right on time
To dance with us is such a thrill '
'Relax Buddy! ' 'Take a pill! '

'Sue, you wanna take a cruise? '
'Sure, we've got nothing to lose.'
Billy walks by, and our hearts start to race.
Oh baby, he puts a smile on your face! .

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
I wrote this in 1982. This is my own personal time capsule. We really did talk like that! I love rereading this, because it takes me right back! I hope you enjoy the slang.
I also reference the song ' I'm turning Japanese' if you have never heard it, you owe it to yourself to listen.its one of my favorite 80s songs. Don't forget to dance!

favorite lines so far: The first place we stop, is in the john We have to see if our lipstick's on! .....................i do the same thing! Lisa, i just looked at past comments, including from me. and i noticed your response to my comment, which 'made me' look at your bio and 'new photo'. who IS it? ? i thought you were a blonde. you know, that is the ONLY reason i like(d) you, ...........for your yellow hair! ! ! ok, i'll get used to it. do you like blonde jokes also? ? let me guess what you wore which was lacy. hmm? jeans can NEVER be too tight, .............unless i need a crowbar to get them off. speaking of which: 'Sure, we've got nothing to lose.' soooooooooooo by 1982 you'd already 'lost' your virginity? ? me too, but i'm quite a bit older than you are; i was late 'losing' mine, though i came very close a few+ years earlier. i blame it on the warning Mom gave me as a boy. good ol' Mom! sounds like a good one for a showcase! ! and no typos this time (i think) , but maybe one comma is not needed. i could be your editor, to answer your question, below, but i'm pretty pricey. bri :)

I know the song. This is indeed a fun time capsule, Elisabeth. I constantly encourage people to write. If they are not poetically inclined, they can still keep a journal and relive or at least see how they thought years ago.
