Taco Brava
Your simple beauty,
your coy indifference,
Ah!
Was it fate, or
was it chance
that brought you,
and your mysterious elegance,
to such a mundane eatery?
To such a commonplace space
in my lonely life!
I return, I return,
not to sate a hunger,
but to pique a thirst
for something, almost intangible,
miles from an inexpensive burrito.
Love, attraction - simple,
simple want for simple,
simple beauty.
You take my order, my money,
but I dare not say
what I truly want
what I'd truly give.
