The state of the nation is the state of undress. Everyone half exposed to the sun, dried up and stuck with vampire bones. Once you open a casket that should have stayed nailed shut you know you're in trouble. Night-time kids never know what to say to each other when they collide under a suspicious, heavy moon. On show under the aching spotlight. Lines forgotten, cues missed. Hands, faces and hearts all turned upside down to spill the contents. Not a shade of an 'I'm sorry' in sight. It doesn't feel good on the tongue and it doesn't sound sexy on the air. Sultry, sweet, provocative. Belts serve to cover the join between thinking and doing; Frankenstein couldn't cover the bolts because he didn't have the fashion sense. Maybe we don't either but we've got bigger ideas. Bigger bad ideas. Blowing kisses to traitors and taking bribes from the moonlight operators. Tell them to make it dark forever. Tell them when they focus the spotlight and switch on the early evening microphone to keep them away from me. I'm frightened over what the stars will have me say next. When I see your face from the side I wonder how you ended up on my side of the fence. It makes me want to drink sunlight. Take your time away from mine, bedtime divine. The tone of your voice creeps under the skin and turns all my words into: "you can't follow this through, there's a whole strip of sunlight between me and you"
This is good, but a bit hard to read for the average person.

Do you mean in the style or the layout?

Style. People always complain about your layout because they've never read a book.

It's pretentious as all hell.
Just being honest. - :)

This is perfectly fine by me. I would be doing something wrong if he enjoyed it.
I've never liked his anyway. In all honesty.

It's got a really good atmosphere and drew me in, as usual. Excellent.
