A Locksmith In Florida Keys

A lost key was looking for his owner
Somewhere in the city.

It may left be in a lot
On a table
In a cab seat
In a puddle
In a gutter
God knows wherever else.

Numbers punched on the cell phone
For retrieve the god dam key
A service van stopped
And the locksmith picked the door.

Owner entered his home
Like a clute worker.

When the curtains were drawn
Sun light rushed into the room
With a panoramic view of the ocean.

Like a intruder
Owener tip toed on the sofa
Looking for a welcoming pet
Wagging its tail.

When his eyes are adjusted to the light
The remants of the night showed up in a parade.

Sweat soaked, wrinkled sheets were piled up on the bed
Followed by an full ash tray with cigarette butts
Empty vine glasses and plates left on the counter.

Bathroom was a different story
Damp towels were strewn on the floor
And a lipstick message left on the mirror.

From shower to the threshold
Owener of the home detected memories
Of an erotic encounter.
