I wore a cashmere coat. It is draped on the back of my chair.
I have never worn such a coat. It makes me feel rich.

I have a silver ring on my finger. Artist made, not a wedding band.
The sleeves of my black silk blouse are tight. Two buttons are left undone.
Curvilinear lines create a voluptuous V. I am wearing a long gold necklace
with a circle pendant from the Theosophical Society.

My hair is naturally dark. A chin length wedge,
parted slightly off center. I have had a mild perm.

My glasses are rose tinted. This is how I see the world. My complexion is smooth.
Pink lips form the slightest smile. My eyes are soft and confident.

They say, without speaking, I see that you see me. I came to the crossroads
and chose that which should not be chosen. I am prepared. I know what I am doing.
