About the feeling you get after five glasses of wine
The wine light
seems to cling
to door latches
where latent beauty opens
like lucid poetry

Reeling in scattered thoughts
of alien clubs
disgorging souls turned fluid
pulsing with a rhythm not mine.
The city throbs
like an estranged friend

Here we fill our space
and all the ragged world can wait.
