April 13

Party Girl

While the other guests ticked
and scuttled through hors d'oeuvres
and conversation, you
stood, pale and blank, silent
in your pretty dress.

Moonlight turned wine
into blood. You were the last
to leave, before the sun
ascended emptyhanded,
red as a wasp on fire.

for some reason want more detailed description so you can keep "pretty dress" but have it seem more pale and blank, itself.

also, like first stanza more than second. i think because the second is suddenly melodramatic or something.
