take me to spain, anthony bourdain

we'll drink our way through the country
while gazing at each other from a slit-eyed haze
feed each other olives

fall out drunk in some quaint and cozy room
unable to do anything but laugh and paw each other

we'll wake up to gorge on fresh fish
prepared by the same hands that cast the net

and yes, castanets
i'll be your gitana and dance to the flamenco in your eyes
you,  my matador, will come to me
with hips thrust forward

    Beautiful write, Luna. Wonderful imagery in this piece. This also seemed to have a sense of romance and adventure in it, too. Thanks for sharing and best of luck in the contest.

    I always knew there had to be a reason I wanted to go to Spain so much. And I was quite sure it wasn't for the bullfights or the museum. Gorgeous, my Friend. You DO rock, ya know.

    This is fantastic!  Reminds me of a poem:

     

    La Gitana
