tactile

'tactile'
you said
your face alight

'I love running my fingers through dust on surfaces
and polishing something to reveal the luster underneath'

I think about your fingertips

our cheeks were flushed from dancing,
our shirts clinging to our sweaty skin
my drumming music had long ago stopped

you pulled your singlet down your arm
I counted the freckles on your shoulder
