Violet

I feel my eyes closing as the heart beats faster, faster, faster. The hands are shaking and I've got the shivers even though my body is warm. I'm wet for the rush of adrenaline and I can't see the city for the cars - I smell like shit and my knees are brown. One day, I will be a fat burlesque dancer sharing the stage with a post-modernist doctor. My body is warm, I shiver and my heart beats faster, faster, faster.
