pistachio


you're looking at the books on the shelf with your back to me
eating ice cream
when i look up your body half bends as you take a funny little kick at a table
and even though i can not see your face
this silly little half-hearted maneuver
tells me that you are happy
suddenly
i tell you to come to me
you lean low and kiss me
i am thwarted as i'd expected pistachio
