Happy Hour 3 

hums                      as blowing willows
arms             bounce as beach balls
flashing children                wide smiles,
legs swatting             helium-filled
orbs                 of purple and white
where Daft Punk             thumps out
electro-                 spines glittering
               like tensioned rods;
thighs rub                               together –
lightening bugs           revving
                            florescent torsos
bent forward                   and heaving
moving as an unnoticed              playground
full of                    glass and dice.
