Saucy Lady

Your laugh
tingles my lips
like a green curry.

Spicy sentiments
clamor for viability.

Squished 
not one lime but two
to sweeten 
the inevitable letdown.

Led attention
astray, praying 
to never again
get carried away.

A dollop 
of destitute hope
cuts the heat,
beats me
if it ever learns
to give it 
up.
