Over the counter

Waiting

For my turn

A tickle

Tops my nose

On a slow burn

My eyes meet

Hers, up-close

My finger

Swipes my nose

Catching her

Mirror me

On the same beat

Mimicking me…

You are, are you?

Did I enter the secret

Door code; a cue?

Temme… hey!

A sheepish smile

Was her only say

I get my gate pass

It was time, alas

To go

Oh, damn! How lame

All I could ask,

Was her name…
