The Slip

Glittering red Her New Year’s dress, her luscious lips Glittering red Confetti raining overhead The ball dropping, the champagne sipped - Waking up naked, eyes like fists Glittering red 11/18/11 for "Glow of Glitter" contest Susan Burch

Hey, susan, in my email to you I mentioned thinking your new contest was about detectives. I don't know what made me think that. I just now saw it was noise pollution or offensive odors!! sorry about that.

Yes, it's sad that revelry often turns to violence, Susan. Many congrats on all your wins : )

VERY interesting one, Susan. Somebody got bloodshot eyes!! Or maybe some violence had ensued? I like how descriptive it is and it's too bad it was too short!
