Club NoNo

Her lipstick creates a halo. In the absence of a heart,
it works. My cynicism erodes as she dances barefoot
across my boundaries...

His observing gaze makes my inert form writhe in anticipation.
I am naked and guiltless. I clutch the top of his blonde head and
hold on. As joy enters me, I'm a child popping pink balloons.
