mambo_time
unhinged the trumpets blare
from the far side of the warehouse

'mambo time!'
he calls out in his
heavily inflected english

he shakes his hips
in figure eights

i step out into the aisle
at my end of the warehouse

i shake my hips
in the same way

i point at ojos bonitos between us
and he joins in hip_hop style

for a few precious seconds
the warehouse is overcome with mambo

but then we all remember
where we are

mambo time over
we all continue

tender_square i love this piece. every (bitter)sweet second of it. 211111

unhinged on friday afternoons
to celebrate the birth of the weekend

at the bathroom mirror
during my nightly hygiene

at the busstop
in the soaking rain

in my sister's house thousands of miles away
to get little butts in bed

an easily inserted moment of joy
to perk up the dreary


this is my new gospel
flung far and widd

what's it to you?
who go
