"Things She Will Never Know"
You tell me
about your affinity
for Puerto Rican boys
as I paint your face
with makeup
while your girlfriend
is at work.
Innocently, you speak
of delicious caramel skin,
eyes black as night,
lips soft like pussy willows,
and lean muscular
shapes of bodies that
you grip as you slide
into them.
Your eyes dash
downward from mine
telling me this.
A half smile starts
the flush rising
into your delicate
high cheekbones
eliminating the need
for blush.
