Saskatoon Aboriginal Day 2007

The town

we painted

a deep bright red

Running with tequila

sinking highballs

in an ocean of green

Dancing with Wolf

surrounded

by white skin

Until the last song

Until the last call

Disappearing

over the curb

into the night.

Beautiful damn spot

Beautiful damn spot

tattooed on my neck

engraved in passion’s moment

last night

or was it

early this morning?

Yesterday

neon lights fluttered

sparkled

around your body

exhaled cigarette smoke

draped over your shoulders

Tequila conversation

veered from your eyes

to your smile

down towards

exposed skin

above your cleavage

“Want to listen to tunes at my place?”

“You have anything to drink?”

“Yeah.”

“Let’s catch a cab.”

“Alright.”

I want you

after last call

I want you

before sunrise

I want you

again
