Stilettos and Ties

Tripping on broken glass
Stilettos dangling by the hand
Plunging necklines and low on class
Cheap yellow dress red waist band
Smokey eyes attempt mystery
Smudged lipstick
Eyeing one with shared history
Passion sealed behind a lock’s click
The night is young.
*
Buttons open
Tie over shoulder
Subconscious erotica unspoken
One hand on scotch another on her
A caress on the neck
A gaze into the eye
Another on the list – a check
On the dance floor make the time fly
The night is young.
*
New morn
Yellow dress and stilettos by the bed
Shirt ripped tie torn
Throbbing head
Coffee mug tipped over
Puddle on the rug
Struggling  for a sheet to cover
Shoes off with a tug
The night was long.
*
Stories abound
Tacit understanding
Stale bagels dead love
One was on business
Another an assignment
Too much to drink
No time
Running to office
*
Dishes left dirty
*
Waning interest
Fake smiles
Crusty curtsies
The night was usual.
