SUNDAY IS FOR POETRY: Disco Fever

Thank you for the inspiration, Janeen! :))





I loved the nightlife.


Stepping out in stilettos and dancing dress,


I shook my booty


to Stayin Alive.




I adored the nightlife.


No cares, no strife,


only the embracing lights


and penetrating beat --


Don't Leave Me This Way.




I lived the nightlife.




Nothing mattered;


I was so high on my stilts,


Swinging, spinning, singing --


Love To Love You Baby.




Memories -- a suitcase of them.


Time to remember I'm a woman.


I slip into my pink satin heels,


belt my pink trench,


and whisper, I will survive --



if I can't have you.

Weren't they most carefree times in life, ML's?! To be so young, so idealistic?! :))
