Free Verse from Tango

 

4:55 AM Tango

 

wild desires
turns to pain

after all night
writhing,

tangling, the
body throbbing

rose as after
a night of sex

moonlight, sun
and neon

a moment of
cool air

forget how
depressingly

beautiful the
young men are

words written in
dance, silver stars

too early still
for anything

to be over
