Vegas Valentine

Friendless by voice mail
as much as by personal
choice I rest my case
of ruinous love on
your shy shoulders
your brave feet
whoever I am tonight
lay down your bet
it’s not as if you have to
get it right the first
time sweetness
leaps into your mouth
that you exist at all
makes love possible
if not entirely sure.
