Pull yourself together

Two slits, light, like an old black and white movie.

Pain,mostly in my head, but shivers through my whole body.

A vice grip at my throat, my heart, my gut.

Breathing beside me, afraid to move.

Frenzied dancing, the world in technicolour, moving, moving, moving.

Spinning and beautiful people and everyone is beautiful and the world is sparkling.

The music is on me and in me and I am the music and she is the music.

Flash, Flash, Flash.

Eyes open, look for substantial piece of clothing. Know time is running out.

Put it on, don't look back, find the door.

Air, deep, deep breaths, soothe, soothe, self soothe. This is not your first rodeo.

Glitter trails across the road mixed with the dark muddy mud from wet tyres as life goes by.
