Rave

Open the doors
   pulse, pulse
It overcomes
    flash, flash
  The neon bright
     dance, dance
   The writhing mess
      chant, chant
    Breathe the sweat
       stumble, rise
     Close your eyes
        swallow, blur
      Colours delight
         yellow, blue
       The quake demands
          more, more
        Air is humid
           cough, choke
         Tension high
            dizzy fights
         Bodies pressed
             swaying, wet
         Bodies aching
              craving, longing
         Tribal beats
               thumping, throbbing
         Lustrous jungle
                neon trees
        Manic dances
                 flicker, flash
        Synthetic inferno
                  addled worship
       Driven by daze
                   always searching
      To be lost
                    and forgot
     Leave behind
                     then sacrifice
    For the night
                      a fetid mess
   Turning round
                       chant, chant
  Take your leave
                        dance, dance
Leave behind
                         flash, flash
Your one escape.

                           pulse, pulse.
This poem is actually about gay marriage.
