To the Bank and Ballroom Delights

To The Bank And Ballroom Delights Right here right now explosions!... excited fuses!... Bombs going off! In the back ally by the river bank History rising to gun shots, balloons and music Too fast to stop as something goes off Ballroom dancing in the dark next door Stumbling into the bank Alarms going off. Shots going off. Babies screaming for a change Drinks in three or more hands or so it seems A little blurred and fuzzy on the scene Music blaring, people dancing Yellow wall flowers flying off the walls Exploding, floating on the edges With my sweetie peach we dance all night In hand in flight over silver lights, flashing reds overhead Music rocks history to death in the speed of numbered steps Caresses of my baby warm against the flesh Power drums pounding at the door of love Feels so real, moving slowly, growing into building rhythms Primordial religions spinning on in joy Tearing yellow flowers off the walls Hurricane bands of magic raining down on clouds of love Enhancing, advancing on the living floor Holding on to dear life, my sweetie pie and I Guns in our pockets as we rock We came to rob a bank Where did it go Someone pointed to outside Next to the disco tech is the ballroom dancing hall By the river bank next door 11/21/14 Ballroom Delights - Poetry Contest
