“Cocktail Party” by Dayton Truitt
Same face’s new stories.
Replace the booze shortly after 4pm. Everybody’s stuck.
To congregate intoxicated: An every man’s sport.
A green light if there was one.
When the most deeds see consequence.
Reality’s break-even: to lose consciousness.
short story/ poem by Dayton Truitt for “ Cocktail Party” by Dayton Truitt, an original digital image.
The faces seem to blend in after a certain point. The origin is simply a well executed abstract picture. The text highlights an important theme in human history. Consumption has always been a form of celebration. From the highest to the lowest sense. And the spiral of events expected to follow have become socially acceptable situations.
