Revenge is not a dish best served cold. Revenge is a dish best served like a Vegas buffet, never ending and with style.

    Dance

     on moonlit feet

       with partners

     of watercolor 

    Through a

      looking glass

 

     Linger

      in anticipation 

   of night whispers

  unveiled by    

    a planet

     that masquerades

   as a star

 

  Flee

 the light

   Grasped for 

     by straining   

   minds

  hoping for

 a glimpse 

  of what came

    before 

 

 To no avail.

 

   Fear not.

 

      The 

  night

    whispers 

 

  will return.
