To the Wholly Go-lightly Tat Girl

You look good under fluorescents
Better in sunshine
How you must glow by flames
Candles, lamps, and fireplaces;
And even outshine the moon and stars.
 
The fantasies and the poems must end
Sometime; should never have begun,
But they did
They might be, if I were free
I’m not, but if I was
Would I ask, would I pursue
You and I could make a shuddering pas de deux
kneeling before you
grasping my gasping prie-dieu.

Author's Note
A much too young co-worker, back before lockdown and work from home, inspired this. Being in a sexless civil marriage
