Alternate Reality
/We flit, flutter
Human butterflies
Weekend Bar hop
Nocturnal allies
Aim to forget
Daily drudgery
Talk too much
Laugh loudly
Expensive perfumes
Dress in finery
Glitter, shimmer
Turn backs on maturity
Gulp chilled prosecco
Blissful intoxication
Flattering candlelight
Flirt with intention
World friendlier
Dreams reignite
Anything possible
Future bright
Ignore ticking time
Count down to Monday
Exploit every advantage
Of alternate reality
