A Week of Short Poems: Day 7

 

~An Evening at Panda’s Place~ 

Dry wine flavors smoke.    A ring

of Rachmaninoff lists about our heads

It glitters.    The piece of micah, I mean,

set into the grasping steel of a brooch.

 

This is desire without love.

The lights diffuse us through.

I peel back the onionskin

Of her psyche to find

an instant

                                predatory thing.
