The woman beckons me; she calls me to, and perhaps from, my soul. I want to see her face. I want her to look up from under the hat so I can see her dark raven hair and her bright green eyes.
I want her to hold me, to smile, to step out from the wall and beckon me to follow her down the alley and into a small, dimly lit, dusty beige adobe room. I want her to lie down on the small wooden bed and unfold the poncho she has wrapped around her.
I want her to reach for me and say, "make love with me."

I lie down beside her as a cloud crosses the sun.
This mysterious woman has been following me (or perhaps I have been following her) for a very long time. I wrote about her in anotherr blog 12 years ago at http://headbutts.blogspot.com/2005/12/coreys-comin.html
