Confident She

Her confidence introduced her by walking into every room first. Wearing lipstick and eye shadow like Barbra Streisand’s from the sixties. It would have looked ridiculous on all the rest of us. We would have looked like trailer trash hookers. On her, it looked elegant, lovely, unique, and chic. She could have walked in wearing a gunny sack And we would have all run out to buy our own. Sure there were haters, but she did not notice. She was too busy engaging others in conversation. The lucky ones who were too busy staring at her beauty to hate her.
