Gummy Bears Can't Dance Salsa

You were hovering over me,

Violently yearning

You whispered:

“gummy bears can’t dance salsa”

Under us the ground broke.

And the choreography was immaculate,

As we fell on one another

Weaving our morals on the last door we passed,

Before we made that right and went downstairs.  

The puddle fell under me— icing my back,

The fall silenced you’re moans,

while the silence started the quiver,

A treble in full effect.

You’re song was in windings as the prophetic tongue wandered.

Then they came to boast the steps,

But one after another their dance lay deaf

For gummy bears can’t dance salsa

When you’ve chewed off their legs.
