we'll always have Paris

dreamt of her elaborate lips
as an elastic dromedary signal

you kissed them
and her wiry neck

your swollen hive
your mead to mix

you jumped down to the ballroom floor
of  a huge blue granite hall

there was a theatrical production up there
and you mocked it

you said it's a tradition for me to be
half schlocked at Christmastime
