Here we stand.Bathed in lights.

Neon and flourescent

beautiful in sickly brilliant

our painted skin glows

glinting in the reflection of approval.

Peroxide Princesses dance past.Toothpaste smiles ;illuminating

Grasp for reality, replaced by insanity.

Queen supreme churns up pestilence like cream

Bow tied daddies flash keys to millions.

The surreptitous kisses of the city reign down upon us

call of the "wild" screams through sing-song sirens

falling victim to royalty

scanning the horizon.

Retreat into the trees, the darkness-it beckons

shadows infect with spindly tasseled fingers

creeping.creeping

submit to darkness

surrender to silence

but the luminosity stalks you

creeping. creeping

you will never be engulfed in ebony-

nothingness-never.

Here we stand. Bathed in lights.

Here the virgin moon moon blankets the ground.

A polished lump of untouched ivory

swallowed by the roars of vehemence

trees tipped in silver

purifies the promiscuous wind

softens, freezes the spiced breeze

bleaches, blushes, blesses.
