m a R a c A

His face fascinates me
Mischievous yet kind
But with a softness
I hadn't expected to find
His soft eyes are soft lashed
His soft fingers softly holding mass
Soft body, soft eyes, soft hands
But the tongue, as rough as sand
A pebble pushed into my mouth
A peppermint from a million miles south

Single letters spelling out a single word
A message from the other side of the world
M A R A C A, maraca

This is enough to take me away
That she could know is insane
As insane as chirruping cicadas
As insane as hissing maracas
Maracas humming like a rash
Is this espionage or witchcraft
How could she possibly know

A message from the other side of the world
Single letters spelling out a single world
Maracas wound up too tight and crackling
Bone and droppings inside a taut skin
M A R A C A, maraca

All is still now
He says
I know this number
It is my wife
He has a wife
