“SO WOULD I”

 

*scroll down for youtube video*

 

Luncheon at the Slow Dance Inn

Decadent tangos in the afternoon

Artificially dark yet

Deep, meaningful glances

Pierce the dimness

Tingling nape

As you lift my hair

Hands cupping my face

Leaving no question

About the conclusion

As our lips caress

Heat seeps through

Sun-struck sand under floorboards

Warming our dancing shoes

And somewhere

The saxophone moans

But we are beyond

The music

Beyond dessert

Of the caloric kind

Drifting to the stairs

Rhythmic hips in sync

One thought in mind

A work of art

A miracle

Together…
