Turning in circles, Checking scents Pheromones, Perfume, cologne. Cosmetic clothes Hide nakedness Of common dog, And bitch. Latin rhythms Change domestics quick To wolf and fox; When the band plays a tango. * Mile above the sea... Buenos Aires..Montevideo. Giddy in thin air; Desire and atmosphere (mid nineteenth century) Swaying to the lusty beats Of Spanish Argentines... Morphed to New York St Louis, Chicago. * Moving back, then sideways... Exposing a calf; The slit of her dress Shows pink of a thigh. Blocking her leg With-a leg, he can do (If she tries to escape) (called sacada) she fakes At breaking away but... Has no real mind to. * Tango means touch, And so the pair follows The titles instructions, Like animals might. The wild in their eyes Is the trance of the rhythm, Drenched-wet with sex-sweat They move towards their lair. * end |

Wow, yes Latin passion transferred from the dancing floor to the page, so eloquently that ... I can hear the music play in the background ... Love, Margherita |

I hope this poem is not to hot for this forum? I left the end blank on purpose, like panning to the window with blowing curtains...It is the dance of life, my aim was sensual, not erotic....although in poems like these they can be the same car roaring towards the crossroads. They have not crashed here, I hope, but just nicked each other... * Bluesey "Ooooooooooo" I like that, as a comment it could stand by itself.... Thank you * Muted Those three words describe the dance Thank you * Dixie Shadows .... short but sweet reply...thank you* Blush I read your poem and commented, nice to see your post, thanks for these comments * 7 Glad the poem moved for you....Thanks * Magherita A perfect nic to match this poem, I had in my mind that the woman in the poem had this name (keeping with the Spanish heat-theme of this poem)....The mans name is Joe,,,,I think of him as plain Joe, because the emphasis of this poem is on the female.....from my point of view ...thanks for reading and commenting ________ice ><> |

 (smiles) Ooohhhhhhh...this is indeed a passionate, yet beautifully graceful and poetic dance of a poem, sweet friend, I love the Latin culture soooooo much and dream to get to dance with a dream girl, though, maybe just a bit much tamer for a while of course, hehehe! (big angel hugs) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Ford, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "You'll find something that's enough to keep you |
