Poem Artwork

A net of transformations
Is intricately interwoven;
I want to give myself up to sloth,
But have got tangled
In the net of my bad habits
Which are aliens to me, I now declare!

I want to dive deeper
In the shadows, but neither canopy
Nor crown of a tree around me --
All friends are scattered, leaving me
On my own on the dance floor
In the blazing footlight and floodlight.

I cannot bring together
All my karaoke's lyrics --
There are so many words
And even more meanings
To hide them all
Under the vault of the night club.

But all of a sudden,
The rainbow falls down,
And dawn fills up the heavens
With the light of my carol
In which I glorify the way
Of being on good terms with hangover.

I'm glad you were "on good terms with hangover."! There are a lot of traps in dem clubs! Down, boy!

Love ya!

I like the metaphor in this. Sometimes people prefer to dance alone because they may think they know the steps better than others.

Quite a different subject, but I like the way you approach it. I always wondered why they called them, "clubs." As though somehow, all those lonely strangers would have some kind of kinship in a place with lots of alcohol and noisy music. For all my efforts on the dance floor, I couldn't find affection there. It was those guys who sat back in the corner drinking and didn't dance, that took home the girl.

Verdict: Beware the nightclub and all the waywardness that it brings. I personally can't stand those places, as in the days of my youth. My hangover from those days is well earned.
