Even
The excessive alcohol
Can’t stop
My thoughts
About the investable
I dance
Stomp
Shake my head
Striving
In vain
To dissociate
To sift off into
The bass beat
But I can’t
Quite
Get there
Get away
Get past
The threshold that
Separates
My conscious thought
From future
To present
From forecasted anxiety
To present passion
From death despair
To dance floor
I drink
More
Dance
More
All
In an attempt to
Lift off
Leave my
Consciousness
If only
For a moment
