Table Dance

light but, I hope, with some truth

softporn saxophone,

botox for the soul

strained faces only

held together by skin,

gluteal muscles for

nylonhearts and sweaty collars;

porcine,popeyed,

each mouth fallen open

like a gallow`s trapdoor,

delight at a big 

dame battleship,

built in stereo

that makes aftershave

boil under matching ties;

littlemen reduced to red.

I do not do this type of dancing. My knees could not take it. Valentine

[Lyn Anderson]

Very cleverly put together this. One question, is botex a thing or was it botox? I know you rarely make errors so I was not sure.

[Leslie Philibert]

A typo ! Thanks for that, I changed it right away.

[Lyn Anderson]

No problem. I wasn't sure.

Loads of such clubs in London. I've never been inside on, (wrong gender,) but it feels like you captured the scene spot on. T.

[Leslie Philibert]

I`ve never been to one either, my missis would kill me..thanks for the review

[David Scott]

I find this hilarious... A truth? Well, probably on some levels. After all, truth usually presented as an exaggeration or abbreviation of the reality.
I think you may need to find a girlfriend soon. ;)
Thank you for the chuckle.

[Leslie Philibert]

Hallo David, you are probably right about the girlfriend, but as I have been married for 30 years I`ll
take a pass on your ( good) idea...

[Pete Langley]

Just the hint of voyeurism here, Les......two large bodies gyrating enjoyably - but this could just as easily be a complete metaphor, knowing you! In any case, so enjoyable a read, my friend. P.

[Leslie Philibert]

Hallo Pete, thanks for the kind words

[jacob erin-cilberto]

[Leslie Philibert]

Hallo Jacob, tried a bit of sarcasm here, hope it works !

[jacob erin-cilberto]

it very much did, and I was trying a bit back...:))))

[John Alexander McFadyen]

This has a sleezy strip club feel to it, darkly sad and dirty yet without cause or outcome. Nicely penned as always Leslie.

[Leslie Philibert]

Hallo John, a good subject, I hope, for a touch of irony !
