Viejo Amor

Viejo Amor
In the thumping neon flashing bachata
My feet and hips surrendered
got lost again in the distant thunder asleep under your lips
Just as willingly I gave in
to the sweet numb of my neck under your fingertips
Dancing our hands clasp
your palms damp with nerves
you patron to
machismo, mi papi, viejo amor
Your mouth only tells
the truth when speaking tongues to my thighs
We are a fireball shooting thru the dark sky.
burning blindly hot, fast and hard glowing… we fly.
then quickly falling…disappear.
Shooting blanks thereafter.

Rubbing my eyes
You are just an ashy pile
I turn and walk away, my dancing shoes in hand

Never needed you to glow…
me amo

Rain in love

It is so very right
To listen to the rain at night
Cooling the soil
The birds singing loudly
Dancing across the branches
Celebration of a loud peace
The droplets giving each a bounty
My heart is filled with grace
Bouncing water filling gaps
Where I was lonely
I’m nourished again.
I can write of joy
Not only passionate strife.
Flowing curves of liquid my dance is becoming again new.
My day rebirthing
