cherry

from your sweet mouth
you picked
the stem
i heard the tearing pop
as it was
loosed
from the fruit
and slid it
onto your tongue
and then
like
houdini in a water tank
i watched
with
excitement
as you did
your teasing
magic
and even faked
drowning
at one point
to
increase the
illusion
and you
were
suddenly
dangling
the
cuffs
from your wicked
finger
and produced
an offer
tied
into two
tight
knots
and
anyways,
i was standing in
your
doorway
so
o.k.
tonight
you
win…
