the dance, hypnotic
you …
survey me intently ...
then wink, and walk over
leaving your circle of admirers in disbelief
smoldering manner (and skin) of a bombshell
prospect - differently indifferent
(a vestal view of heaven)
faultless form, lulling the room with your sway
smile dressed in coral bows, blossomed
I say hello ... (hello back)
then stumble like a bumbling boy over
the shape of your words …
locution, sound, meaning - adrift
lost to the roiling sweep of a new portent
and exotic sensation …
pounding heart thrums my bones
coursing fevered arteries …
thoughts, a dervish of combustible ideas
bewitched - transfixed and hungry
and no focus but those lips -
the dewy fruits that frame your lilt smile,
dancing hypnotically -
curling, closing, pouting, pursing …
toying with each other, (and my core)
o'er a glistening white chiclet expanse
speaking to me more of temptation and flavor
than whatever words may be forming
or whatever sounds may
hang tangled in the air between us …
intonations I can NOT hear
for sake of what has become my sole pursuit
my concupiscent crave, singular -
a purientaphrodisiac adventure
my perquisition, sublime
the pulpy press of …
your kiss.
