jazz in her smile.


the universe broke open an
arrangement, a melody that sings
to the stars every night

and leaves us begging

lay our bodies down
and lift us up in our
nakedness.

but she,
left me bleeding
with progressive rhythm
and subtle taste of
her intergalactic lips

to die.

i heard the melody that night
for the very first time.

We don’t have to take our clothes off


take my hand
and lead me to
the floor

let’s hold each other
and move along
as the rhythm goes,
as the music like
the southwesterly breeze
flows.

we can sway
our feet
while your hazel eyes
sing the song
of this cold snap night

let’s just have
fun, we don’t
have to take our clothes off
tonight.
