Lawrence Carradini
FANDANGO DE LAS CALAVERAS
You didn't tell me your name
or how beautiful you were
I had to guess these
like picking a lock
when one is left
without a key
I had to when --
when I saw your
picture behind lipstick
behind dew-lapped window
dressing your naked truth oh so
silk yellow tickling belly tongued
lover at your breast
lover at your breast
erect on window light
if wishes were kisses
if wishes you would
be
wet and I would
be
