( #26 )

1.

in the style
of a jazz club
until midnight
soft notes round like breasts

we are all looking to
each other

waiting

drunk queens
taking wrong turns In & Out
located next door
thundering pulsating
thrusts of rhythm

waiting waiting

2.

Hymn for the Weekend
on the dance floor
Irene

arching eyebrows orange lipstick
on the fabric of my tanktop
marking my shoulder neck fingers
against my upper arm
skin beneath lips

waiting

rubbing sliding
rocking hips

3.

halt
in the music bobbing foot
drowning three shots
the bottom
is made of glass

waiting

seeing how the land lies
miniskirts tight
jeans
butt cheek impressions drowning

one Tequila Sunrise for
Véronique

4.

big breasts warm
inner thighs

in a corner of
the room a wall from away the men's world

we are desperately calling
something unnamed out
into each other

not love
we only love with our fingers
tongues with the darkness

waiting

next door
thundering pulsating
thrusts of rhythm

5.

post-orgasmic
fag whirls of smoke
breathing out the taste of cunt
used done

waiting

thundering pulsating
headache
rubbing sliding
nausea

blinking
against the darkness

6.
