Tonight We Dance

Zeus and Thor collude against our dinner feast abhorred by its stature green isn't color that fits. Nevertheless, tonight we dance." And her glass rose again with them cheering it. "Youth flee their lessons burdened with pesky and serious concerns long past their tender. For what of their guardian, exhausted will she manage? the pilling of warnings? of crossroad endings? Regardless, tonight We dance." And her glass rose again, they're lost at her turn. "Broken close their eyes to their fate and its price they planned for luck solely but got struck instead. Their doctors prescribed but held was their fund for useless is the mallet to the insurance wallet. Anyway, tonight WE dance." And her glass rose again but gone was their wit. "Looking-in hands implore, forsaken howl at our spoils like wolfs without a den or a pack to take them in. They'll surrender to the rain and recoil to any found dent of this majestic construction to remind'em where they stand. All the more reason, TONIGHT WE DANCE! Because we can!" And she gulps the wine.
