salsa girl

Whispers in the powder room

I heard her say your name
A secret she could not tame

Stealing sideway glances
Innocent shades to hide guilty eyes

Playing scenes of sweet surprise

Have you not heard
her tapping step
wishes to dance in your unmade bed

delicious forbidden fruit
to cast away after one bite

just to prove she knows how to chew
& can a man not enjoy her view

unpainted nails
ready to scratch away

hiding traces of blood
with her light scented perfume

she whispers to me betrayal in the powder room
