everyone knows
it is humor that
breaks the tension
but few know
that later
2 a.m. later
it is your wonderful
slow, sensuous kiss
that is the ramble
along the path
of desire
i seek out the humor
and dream of the moment
where somehow
i am in your arms
dreaming of magic
i want the lights
to go out
and the furnace
to come on
and laughter
to fill the air
very nice...
