Tahera Mannan Poet Verse

Twentynet-70

Blaring disco
swirling clubs
‘One night affair’ shakes
Funk, Latin, Soul music
reverberated vocals
grinding hips
shaking bosoms
electric pianos
phenomenon spread, over and above all
young minds, young bodies, a fusion
trippy lighting
colourful costume
remix version, DJs influential, people party
Shake, shake, shake, shake your booty
All is free, don’t be snooty
Disco wear, stretch and reflect light
Ultra violet light zooms
Heady time, heady music
Soled shoes
Feet hurt

By-Tahera Mannan
For Nette’s ‘Magic for decade’s mood’ Contest
