Notes About The Poem

Pleasure Seekers

Let abundant energies     ...............	burn
Late into the night as    .................	the
Light of a flickering    ....................	candle
Throws reflected shadows     ..........	at
Mirrored walls, while we    .............	both
Bathe in pleasure till music   ..........	ends.
