For and Against the Stage

– “east of what” by caner teker

The room was dark. A seductive, woody-scented note was spreading in the air. And you appeared, crawling into the crowd. There was no other sound other than your breath while you moved. No one knew what would happen next. The sensuality was present in close proximity, yet not through the display of a body.
