Velvet Ballroom By Cristina Munoz

Velvet Ballroom was the very first poem I had accepted by Poetry, Australia published in the Winter Edition 1991. I saw the guy I wrote about a few years later at a Gay Nightclub with his boyfriend! No wonder I was attracted to him as I was out by then too. Still to this day he has no idea I wrote a poem about him, let alone had it published by a literary journal. Shush, let's keep it between us.
