Revel in the night, the smoke and liquid The sound waves washing over your limber electric body The wild lights spinning, tilting, bursting in and out of musky darkness Trickling with sweat and industrial poison,                     Dripping with loneliness and longing          Inhale the voices, howls and whispers brushing against   your      earlobes Tingling your spine, swaying your future of marble, concrete      and rebar                             The night is organic. It grows in you.                       Its fragrance blooms. You can taste its Sweet vapid fingers on your tongue.                 Its rhythm surging in your chest.  Swelling. Your blood cells rush it to the most desolate lighthouse       Of your soul. Even that last one, out beyond the craggy shores   Its light orbiting an ethereal void shrouded in icy fog        Let this floating torch warm even those derelict  spiraling steps                 Let it illuminate forgotten chambers cobwebbed and dank                 Your life can wait. Your envelopes impregnated with bills                                   Your appointments, treadmill and alarms itch                     Death will curate you through your museum of horrors                     Your monochromatic 50 year yawn can resume at dawn                                                       But not tonight. Tonight                                Revel in the music, laughter, curves, leather, lips!         Abstracted desires - embodied, enraptured, erupting                                       Reincarnate like a drunken god                            Dancing on a graveyard of dreams

Revel!
Revel in the night, the smoke and liquid The sound waves washing over your limber electric body The wild lights spinning, tilting, bursting in and out of musky darkness Trickling with sweat and industrial poison,                     Dripping with loneliness and longing          Inhale the voices, howls and whispers brushing against   your      earlobes Tingling your spine, swaying your future of marble, concrete      and rebar                             The night is organic. It grows in you.                       Its fragrance blooms. You can taste its Sweet vapid fingers on your tongue.                 Its rhythm surging in your chest.  Swelling. Your blood cells rush it to the most desolate lighthouse       Of your soul. Even that last one, out beyond the craggy shores   Its light orbiting an ethereal void shrouded in icy fog        Let this floating torch warm even those derelict  spiraling steps                 Let it illuminate forgotten chambers cobwebbed and dank                 Your life can wait. Your envelopes impregnated with bills                                   Your appointments, treadmill and alarms itch                     Death will curate you through your museum of horrors                     Your monochromatic 50 year yawn can resume at dawn                                                       But not tonight. Tonight                                Revel in the music, laughter, curves, leather, lips!         Abstracted desires - embodied, enraptured, erupting                                       Reincarnate like a drunken god                            Dancing on a graveyard of dreams
