Free Verse from Tango

 

Spend The Night Tango

 

it's the old story tango,
after your hips and
knees rub each
other, after he's shaped
and led you with
his body. After
you forget yourself
his body the center of
your world as
your body
is his.
After you no
longer think of your
self as separate
from him, after
you've used more of
your upper body
against his torso and
you're swiveling your
rib cage slowly,
sensually, his chest
close to better
feel your
footwork and you've
flaunted your ass
a little, to
spend the night
seems just
one more step
