I really like this. I don't usually dig writing where the words are shortened to make the flow better, but this poem's so sweet it's alright.

"After the applause, we file out of the theater

on to the darkened streets to maybe catch a cab."

is amazing. I love the rhythm and the feel it gives you. The whole last stanza is pleasant.

I love 'from the ears down,' too.

'supple' kind of throws off the feel, but U words often do.

Good job.
