Aw the 70's, mirror balls and flashing lights in hypnotic patterns and blasting music with lyrics rich in lust and crowded dance floors with bodies writhing suggestively. Oops, sorry you are too young to have known disco of the 70's.

Thank you for sending me back in time, now I feel the need to hear some Bee Gees, Donna Summers, Earth Wind and Fire, KC & the Sunshine Band. Ok, enough of that, it was a nice walk down memory lane, anything I read that can affect me this strong has done a fantastic job. Five out of five Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap!
So much contrast of fire and ice, of the skin deep beauty of the butterfly and the homeliness of the moth. It speaks to how mixed the feelings are at this particular setting - I know the dance floor and all the firey and wild smitten mania and sensuous sex of it - mixed with outrage and disgust of how cheap and shallow it all can be. So well conveyed in so few words.
