At every party there is a secret party.  

One that only few know about and are invited to.  

I was lured away from the crowd to one of these clandestine gatherings.  

I turned down the smoke as it is not my thing.  

I partook in drink instead.  

 

They handed me a big shot of Fireball whiskey.  

I gargled the cinnamon spiced liquor and then swished it around in my mouth.  

After swallowing I asked if they had handed me water and if there was anything stronger. 

 

As I raised my Leica to my eye I said “document everything”.  

I then smiled and said “don’t worry….. 

I’ll only capture you from the nose down.”
