perhaps it is how your religion seeps
like prayers with saliva cellophane
over the curves of your lovely sinful

and lingers like demon roses behind
scenting my senses into oblivion
making the hound of me more heathen

but you smile with your worship lips
and pretend your rosary is jewelry
just something for your fingers

as you count the buttons on my shirt
that you have not yet been carnal with
but you know we will always dance again

and the music will be the glue between us

I love this.  I choose to believe that the buttons are ivory-coloured and not made from part of an elephant.

Just the poem to read as I get dressed for work.  Heck, I want to take it all off and start my day over (and it hasn't even begun).

Loving this.

I don't care what the buttons are made of, the fact that they are being counted for future reference is quite enough for me.

There are just so many ways
one can sigh between a button
and a slip of sigh...

This is one of them.
