The Mind Darts

Disco balls circle my head-

I fall in step to the tempo-

Sidelining the lights and my busy hands-

Tapping my toes-

Rocking my hips away from responsibility-

Absolutely immersing myself, until-

Caterpillars creep onto my glittery dancefloor-

Tripling in size after each blink-

I climb onto the back of the largest one-

Out the window we go, inching across the sky-

Nearing Dairy Queen
