you walk away
and i let myself
watch your hips
today this summer sky
has no clouds
——
floating and leaving no trace
you walk away
and i let myself
watch your hips
today this summer sky
has no clouds
——
you walk up the stairs
behind you
i ascend, my hands on your hips
i feel your bones
and as you step up
a practical lesson in your anatomy
as your thigh, so close to me, rises
your hip rotates up
first the right
then the left
and then again
and again
until we reach the top
