hideaway

we smiled at our familiar
so sure of ourselves
sitting in early summer
face to face around a
wobbly glass-frosted table top

we found comfort in cigarettes

she knew I always had
to have one when with her
I knew she’d join me

and through puffs of wanting

I sat in secret sipping sin
lapping up the lapis in her eyes
they tumbled over and around in
fickle chatter parting syllables

onto my lap

aimlessly burning it
while my legs held onto the air

fate is not just
whose cooking smells good
but which way the wind blows

(Ani DiFranco)

Hi Maree...I'm glad you didn't take out my favorite part...."lapping up the lapis in her eyes". I liked it before, and still do! Hugs!

Smooth and good, and oh so erotic without being flamboyant. I like this a lot.

What escapes from the erogenous zone of your mind has a heat that I'm well acquainted with. Fire comes to mind. Soft spoken flames of wanting.

Oh, and I love the pic.
