A shot of whiskey,
A puff of smoke sets a pensive moment.
I only want to whisper a slow thought,
Melodramatic...
Husky in it's personality
Only a thought...
Let it lay like a robin's egg...in its nest.
Incubate it, mull it, savor it...
Tis but a simple thought.
Whiskey voice rumbles in your ear,
Wends its way past smallest fear,
Let it tease its way down... a trickle like a tear,
Tracing its way
Leaving trail invisible, like candlelight in day...
A simple thought,
A small request, not a big behest...
Your skin feels that slight tingle,
As when first our hearts did mingle..
Pulling you in directions of...Such a simple thought...
Now for you, my friends..reading..
Watching me unfurl...heeding..
A simple thought to pursue
A small conundrum just for you..
Is it the thought? Or is it...
A hard lived, whiskey smoked, bass of voice,
playing across strings,
Pulling together feelings transmuted into lust,
Singing the story of a mans want lost in a whirlwind of dust?
.....................................OR.........................................
Is it just a slow simple thought?
PEACE
