An erotic dance (2012?)

 

I watch you move

Each step flowing

Like an erotic, exotic dance

That carves out the air

Around you

The way Ancient Egyptians

Carved it out in stone,

You carrying a mystery

As mysterious

As the Sphinx,

Awing even great men

Like Alexander or Napoleon

And ordinary men

Like me,

Your movement

 Your dance, your shape

Humble us, humble me

As I watch,

Lost in the haze of your passing

Your face, your breasts, your hips

Your legs

All so fluid as to make me believe

We are in a dream,

A dream from which

I never wish to wake
