Potential

        I associate happiness with electronic music. I do not cut myself to feel or throw my emotions into artistry or physically push myself through some activity that overbears any internal emotion. I drunkenly dance to DJs in bars surrounded by others doing the same. We come together, we take off our clothes, we consume alcohol. We become friends, animalistic but not beastly. It is a happiness that does not need to prove itself through a smile.
      Dressing in neon, the lights flash throughout the club, creating a contrast that heightens the sense. Pitch black vs. a bright stream of light. Come to think of it, I find that the direction of humanity was solidified when artificial light was created. No longer did we have to follow what was natural. We could do as much as we created.
