Hotter than the aluminum roofs of staggering summers
I wonder who your mind and mouth will be interested in next
Who will your clock tick-tock for?
Who will your palms sweat-snap for?
Who will your heart pitter-pat for?
I sink into my cool desk chair and twirl my hair around my fingers
Vodka soaked nights, club soda removed red wine spills
Our lips touch lighter than a strapless silk cocktail dress
My palms and fingers interlock with yours
Cleaner lines than kitchen counters at five star hotels
I wonder who your mind and mouth will be interested in next
Who will your feet tap-tip for?
Who will your head think-thoughts for?
Who will your stomach spin-stop for?
We continue to suffer through painful pillow talk
Coffee filter cubicles, water ring stained wood tables
Our toes touch lighter than a flickering lighter flame
