Salsa For Beginners

© Nicholas Vosper 2002

Caucasian males wish for Latin blood,
rhythm and Fred Astaire feet,

all gladly exchanged for rigid hips,
clenched knees and fettered motion.

Patient partners persevere,
fluid hips pouring perfectly in time

with a barely heard oral tempo
muffled by the heavy tread of men.

Swaying females feel the romance
their seamless motion courts tutor awe,

whereas manliness stifles sensuality
mouthing the count, watching the steps
