Silk Lady/ Love in the Club

One night in Bangkok I was
walking down a tree lined avenue.
Under a full moon, rain was falling
softly and the winds blew nice and cool.
Across a courtyard a woman called to me.
She was standing in the moonlight
in a white silk dress, her long black
hair dancing in the music of the breeze.
As I approached her, she said only these
words "Follow me" and as I walked behind her
I delightfully admired all of her I could see.

As me and this lovely silk lady reached a
building she knocked twice upon the door.
The door opened quickly and we descended
down a long and narrow flight of stairs.
We walked down a long hallway with sofa's
along it left and right and upon each sofa
were men and women socializing and enjoying
the luscious pleasures of a romantic night.
Around a corner was a green doorway and as she
took my hand a man in a black suit let us in,
and as we entered we heard the sound of music
and joined a room full of dancers hoping this
was a night that would never end.

Lovely description, dear James.

For me, the giveaway line in this is the first one;

One night in Bangkok I was ...

which made me wonder if the interlude outlined here was purely of a romantic nature. If I am wrong I apologise but, as they say, poetry can be interpreted many ways.
Whatever the interpretation or intention there is certainly a touch ot fascination in this work - if only for what was not said but what may have been implied ...

Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
