At night I put them on in my pajamas
I walk on the hard tiles of my bathroom floor
I’ll try every one of my 23 pairs on
I walk on the unfinished
Cement flooring of my basement
Just to hear the different sounds
Of the click clak
The heels make on the hard floor
A silent room with a long tile hallway
In the distance
There is a click clak
In the silent room, everyone’s attention
Is pulled to the tile hallway
The breathing stops as you wait
To see her
This click clak
The heels make on the hard cement floor
Make a dignified sound.
When you hear that click clak,
You know a woman is approaching
The sound demands your attention,
Filling you with anticipation
Of a beautiful, professional woman
Giving her
an entrance
