Let’s Dance The flyer read “DJ Lickable with special guest Geronimo in Heat.” How could they not go? They needed a break from exams and boyfriends. The packed club was a freakshow. Half-naked manic dancers spiralled out of control, separating Lanata and Polly. The sensual battery of strobing colors and intimate darkness loosened their inhibitions. Bodies ground together with the resonating beats; darkness hid the indiscretions of strangers. Woman and man, then—shockingly arousing—woman/woman. Polly met Lanata outside and they giggled, eager to share their lascivious experiences. Only then Polly saw it was her sparkling purple lipstick smeared on Lanata’s face.
