The Tango
the music begins, low, steady,
your hand grips my hip and our dance begins
slow, sensual, paced
a twist here, a turn there,
getting to know each other,
there,
the tempo changes
we’re spinning and swirling,
the 808s building in time with our desires
crescendo imminent
but just out of reach
another song change and
we’re tumbling through a haze
losing time and sense
the music fades
the dance is over
your hand grips my hip and our dance begins
slow, sensual, paced
a twist here, a turn there,
getting to know each other,
there,
the tempo changes
we’re spinning and swirling,
the 808s building in time with our desires
crescendo imminent
but just out of reach
another song change and
we’re tumbling through a haze
losing time and sense
the music fades
the dance is over
