He asked me if I have plans tonight
how do I tell him, I’m on the i95, windows down, sky almost as blue as my thoughts
out looking for myself tonight in magic city.

I was 7 when i first came here.
Rubbing my eyes, nervously clutching that second hand doll from the tianguis in Mexico, disoriented after that four day journey
The city opened her arms to me
said maybe we didn’t belong to nowhere . maybe we could belong here
You don’t think i forgot a piece of me in the country we left?

I was 14 when i put on my first pair of heels,
stumbled like Bambi onto the stage and sang.
You don’t think that girl got left behind then and there?

I’m 27 now.
You don’t think I come crawling back to her 97 degree embrace, battered, shattered from the journey
Long, thick black hair turned white from flying too close to the sun?
How many times do you think I’ve gone out looking for myself
In the orange hue of the lights
In the eyes of my sister
In the baby blue of this sky?

Trying, again, to find that place in me that is indestructible?

I’m out looking for myself again tonight in magic city.
I’ll be home in the morning.
