I sit beyond the darkest edge
of the dance floor;
beyond the coloured confusion
of the lights;
beyond the possibility of notice
and watch them.
Within the room the dancers
move to the beat;
the lights paint them in shifting
random patterns;
their clothes, their hands, their faces
in spectral spectrums.
The darkened ballroom windows
reflect the lights
but do not reflect the dancers
solid forms.
They become spirits in the night
as I become a ghost.
