Night of the Happy Bodies

I like parties where you sit around and talk to people. But I love parties where you dance and make noise with people. This may seem strange for a writer, but I can find spoken words overly complex and unwieldy, especially in the fast-moving currents of a party.

Movement and sound are the natural language of a group, because they give instinctive access to the heart and to our primal need to connect with our own species whether in friendship or in animus.
