after dinner
like the gritty dregs
in a glass of port, our love
remains
it was good going down,
anyway
twist top
you open a twist
top with
a quick wrench, like snapping
a chicken's neck
flip the cap aside
and
drink a long pull
as you lean back
the cropped tee tightens
over your breasts
and I,
suddenly thirsty
myself, twist and snap
another bottle
another cap
