charcoal man steps out to the early dusk soft leather feet shined Panama a’tilt sharp crease in legs sun pink egg yolk stuck to the sky lights way to esplanade bench he waggles cigar in wry mouth eyes searching lust fingers drumming envie loud giggles draw near swing purple and red skirts charcoal man keeps his fire banked low chuckles demon laugh skirts flame around him so comely he murmurs new stepins sun a red slit lying on the horizon waiting to slam shut charcoal man takes himself home he knows his lady will pass him pair of eyes |

Thank you Stranger. Sunshine, thank you for taking this ride with me. I have enjoyed having you along. I think it’s time to wrap it up. Yes? I’m glad you like it passing shadows. Hang on. |

Nope. Once the charcoal is in your blood... there's no way to dissolve the heat it brings. Let it simmer... he'll come back to your dreams.... and you'll write of him. I know. Just check out my Konrad series sometime...which ultimately stemmed from another great poet here at PiP...who wrote of Iambe.... You've given birth to a new poet character... long may he reign. |
