Grown Folks

by Angela Thomas

I'm a grown up now with grown up tweed
colored clothing and high heels to torture
my swollen feet. I'm a grown up now with a
nine-to-five and a glass of wine (or three)

at the end of the day. I'm a grown up now
when I tell my boyfriend I love him and then
I look at the important ring on my third finger
to the right of my dominant hand. I'm a grown

up now because I have real mail - the kind
of mail that takes time and patience to sort
through. I'm a grown up now because I walk
the streets of New York City alone and I succeed

at what I have set up to do. I am a grown up
now because now, I've really grown up.
