Love Writhes On the Blues
Smokey air, husky wisps burn
The tunes of a sax,
And madness etches its velvet path
This urge to rap, to boom, to reel
Out of skin...
Climbing unto your heat, a lover’s appeal
Notes tracing hips and curves
Into your arms , I swerve.
Our bodies writhe on blues
Grinding on café floors,
Till cool refrains tilt a pitch
My heart begins to drawl...
Oh Latin strains urges a moan,
A moan pulsing a fire
While we burst in sweet desire.
Turn me loose while rhythms arise
We are fools,
On this ragtime magic
When magic wets moist lips;
With a tempo flaming eyes
Just this one night...
Before last timbre of song burns
As I wait for your long return.
