derailed

my sweet fixer
stops by, his eyes
washed with Marseillais set and rise,
his smile coaxes
my lips to keep time

a fiddle, a swig, a traintrack
a bin filled
with crisp linens and a tumbleweed
_____ with a twitch.

He can talk until the moon
milks the sun, and I will listen
until kingdom come.
