enticed by kicking feet

my feet are kicking
high in the air
now the scissor step
making an arabesque design

my first and last husband sees this as sexy
everything I say and do has been sexy
since the minute he began coveting me
When I was just a baby of fifteen.

He was an older man.
Also fifteen, but seven months older.
I see him lick his lips.
And the chase begins.
fifty-seven years later.

I bet few couples can say this…
