Maneuvering through darkness and sound,
Are bodies of black, brown, yellow and white
Battling the heat of sexual tension
While meshing into a kaleidoscope of movement
As bombastic beats sway thoughts from intitial good
intentions;
From the DJ booth, Cupid watches--
His arrows more content to miss their mark
For he knows lust dances luringly under the stars
And for these oppressed and searching souls,
The lights and sound are truly hypnotic;
He himself has fallen under the spell of ectasy, once or twice...
Staring at the lights..those beautiful, sweet lights...
Dropping bow and arrows, Cupid once again dances into
the night.

I can picture this.  You've captured the essence of the dance floor and the heat generated there.  Well written.

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.

The dance floor, as humanities kitchen...
creative, expressive...bubbling with chemistry
Under hypnotic lights...a recipe for intense
Liked this...very much
