moments were grains of warm sand drifting between
the lady of your fingers when you strummed beyond dawn
and reached into your heart pocket treasury, collecting
those coins you saved for buying just the one time things

you held my hand as a girl with her eye lids closed
and listened to my steps on those coals you feared
there was no sound to make you want your shoes
so you worshiped the warm and loved the following

you dressed in your gypsy colors of nearly nothing
and then danced above the eyes of wanting hounds
your limbs shimmered in love lust vulgarity after
and you wounds begged to be open beyond the scars

moments were rivers of warm syrup seeping between
the lady of your fingers after strumming had begun
and I entered your heart pocket with worship
not for the coins you saved, but that you were spending

while you were knowing that there were no tomorrows
