In hesitation
She smiles
The nodded head
Departs
Only to return
With a gift
Wrapped in white
With stripes
Beckoning for
Me to slowly
Unwrap
Release
The building of
The heat
Of the fragile case
Of the fragile case
Of the futile cage
The slow turning foot
The bitten lip
The known unknown
Beneath the wrapping
He smiles
In hesitation
