A Smokey Room...

By Ocean of Truth

     The ambience of asylum
Cynical twists and neurotic turns
The thrill of proximity
            Yet never touching
Only wisping
      Like scattered conversation
About translucent topics

    The haze lowers
Pulling at the skin
       Moving with gravity
Locked to this seat
              With glazed eyes
          Drifting aimlessly

Comfort defined

      Gliding
            Easily

                       ........with the breeze

    Sultry and Seductive, a room where you sit alone yet surrounded by many... with high stakes on the line.

    Makes me feel like the old days and sitting around the circle smoking.
