I was never one for dancing,
But I was always interested in the view
Tonight was no exception.

The music played your theme
Your hips moving, to rhythms
My feet would soon forget.
My heart fluttered
Matching the tempo of drums
Then Pounding faster.
As your twists mesmerize.

The lights play games of tag
On the ceiling,
Across the walls,
On the floor,
Across your curves.
I'm swallowed by your visage.
As the room follows your lead.

Spinning,
Twisting and contorting
Carrying you towards me
Or me towards you.
I no longer can tell.

Your eyes sparkle
In between the strobe.
Inviting me to join you
As my body learns a second language.
First clumsily, but
Each second brings fluency.

We are lost in each other.
Letting the music
Hypnotize.
Our bodies, symbiotic.
Energy pulsing-
Through each other,
Into each other.

During a moment of clarity I think.
If she drank a poisoned cocktail.
I might ask the bartender for what she's having.
