That Clink

How do I describe
The soft, high clink
Of a lip ring clicking, tinkling
Against a dollar-store wineglass?

A tiny symphony
Cheersing the night, the union
Between mouth
and faux-glass faucet.

Percussive
an oral tambourine
Stainless steel, merlot-flood delicacies...

A fleeting tribute
To that
which draws us most.
