If It's Just Lust

if it's just lust if it's just lust no one goes bust ...then throwaway the rose and prose the idle stalk and blank talk playing footsies and tootsies shaken and baking in the oven of shadow loving ... find your knees to please if it's just lust no one goes bust give me your tulips stop the peeping Judas and let be mouth sweet basking in your teeth to play the piano keys making our hearts freeze if it's just lust no one goes bust give me your second tulips of garden petals drops to the rising sun and the land of fun to the sandy beach where big waves screech a sprint to the finish holding on with a grimace if it's just lust no one goes bust give me your third tulips as the dark side bends and dips in the face of virgin wool as hearts and tears pool as the piano man comes pitching his grand if it's just lust no one goes bust the night is on fire tulips fulfilling every desire the candle is lit rising, rising every bit as the tulips sit in her quivering vase a cherub afterglow on their faces connie pachecho 2/18/17
