Her Fingertips at the Other Woman's Waist

Femme wannabe

sheathed in black velvet,

shapely curves suggesting

ample breasts, hungry

hips, silky thighs.


Black-haired butch,

suave in grandfather’s tails,

intent gaze charming

all in the room.

Her fingertips at the

other woman’s waist

exude heat as she

hands over a drink.


These two no longer

dance together,

but still she leads

this way and that.


Martini a false excuse,

the giddy femme follows,

her unspoken offer

tempting, but unheeded.


The host has already

moved on to other guests.
