Dancer - 100 words
She dances as the band plays, all hips and closed eyes, sinuous in her jade dress. At the edge of the dancefloor, self-concious bar rats stand with drinks in hand, trying to seem uninterested.
Consumed by the beat, she sways, oblivious to the eyes she draws - even other enthusiastic dancers pause to watch her now and then.
The rhythm swells, reaching a climax, and she seems to glow under the lights, the smile on her face one of pure joy.
The song ends and the girl, satisfied, leaves the same way that she arrived - disappearing suddenly into the night.
