I’m onto you
don’t think I’m not
looking so fine
sipping your white wine

I caught your up-nod
across the room
before my quarter-turn pivot
and my body swooned

too much attraction
reeled in my reaction
I know better and yet
I still accepted
the cocktail you sent

later that evening
we danced so close
I couldn’t
you wouldn’t let go
so we didn’t

I know better and yet
I kissed you back
no regret
no opportunity
left unspent
