You smile
just like

my favourite foreign movie

seen only once
without subtitles

so I had to guess
the gist of it.

I continue to
re-run

that smile

in the cinema
of my head

as if my libido
were an enthusiastic critic

giving rave
reviews of it.

Oh I love your lips
always just on the verge of
a smile...a kiss...kiss!

CONVERSATION(TANKA)

Nothing is said as
nothing needs to be said as
(lips part) (for to speak)
in this conversation of
kisses...nothing but....kisses
