He’s got one toe on the starting tape,

One toe on the bed,

Making love, in that moment, in time,

With the little toe quivering to go.

A race to stay in required time,

Long enough to keep love aflame,

Looking outward and forward

With that lean, of got to go.

I hold the hand, I hold the arm

I turn the charm, I turn the tears

But he’s here, he is here,

Yet he’s there, he is there,

While that foot, and toe, and pinkie, too,

Shashsays

Out the door.
