party girl dance

party girl dance
	across the pacific
eyes and lips so fresh and heavy
only one way to make a living
running backwards
	through the boneyard.

sitting with me
	going nowhere
momentary heat connection
somewhat real and
	somewhat fake
intersecting intersections
flashing lights in
	frozen lake.

party girl
	needs a husband
party boy
	needs to last
both of us are underwater
both of us are
	fading fast.
