Call and Response: 45: Alley Parking

If you took my first name and translated it
you would find me dancing flamenco
through a warm night in tiny tap shoes
wooing a wicked drink downtown with friends
with an extra pair of more practical flats
on the seat in the cab of the turquoise Ford pickup in the alley, idling

Lotta car, lady, the boys would whimper
and scold after me, small woman on a mission
