Magic Man

I was so comfortable

in my hush-edged aloness,

then I heard footsteps echo.

Part of me wonders who he was.

A stranger to be afraid of?

His body was dangerously close.

Instead, he became gentle,

like some kind of magician.

I make out the

shimmer in his eyes.

My heart savoring the heavens.

My mind is in a whole

other place, wanting

to devour him.

"Can we keep this

between you and me?" he asked.

Our luscious little secret, but

will t bring happiness?

Ahhh . . . Little secrets indeed. I think mayhap this one you want to devour has his own little secret, which will eventually bode treacherously dangerous.
