12:00 am Friday night             spins around us bright and loud and dizzy we spin from the dance floor to the table             and back under a green disco ball the party is just beginning 1:00 am another hour another bar we're saturated with                     music and liquor so we fade into the corner to talk sorry I didn't catch that we lean together                         what were you saying? 2:00 am your head lolls and your eyes flutter shut                           time to go in the doorway outside you strike a match you bring it to the cigarette in your lips and you look at me                   right at me through the flickering light then you smile and everything stops Written September 8th, 2001 © on Sep 08 2001 02:55 PM PST   0 • 8
