I've Become Partial to...(2012)

I’ve become partial to red dates

                                    Ginger

                                    Soy sauce

I crave for the scent of five-spice

                                    Red wine vinegar

I long for the essence of chrysanthemum

                                    Joss sticks

                                    And the soft candles

                                    At your altar

But

Most of all

I desire the scent of you

Fresh from the shower

Your long black hair cascading

As you turn

With love in your eyes

And smile
