An encore.
Could anything be more delicious than
the sky pale blue smudged grey?
The swirl of him in my mouth,
coffee lips
with an intention to honor with pretty torments—
we are closer than physical,
a bumbershoot
forgotten while sauntering in the rain.

I love the title, Sanaa, and the word bumbershoot instead of umbrella – it makes me think of mushrooms shooting up after a shower. Nothing better than sauntering in the rain.
