I walked in on 6inches heels and a gold clutch A rather decent gown and a Rolex wristwatch This would be my first time in church And all I sought was to see if I was indeed missing much My name is Mary; I try every time to leave out the surname I'm used to the life out there and you shouldn't have me to blame Tossed to and fro by predating men, I see myself no more than a game Please don't bother to offer the pity party; I no longer feel any shame A swarm of eyes buzzed condemnation on me as I stepped in And with the murmurs that followed, I suddenly missed my favourite inn Not minding, I swayed past everyone...
