the same situation, seen by

a silent disco

Best day ever

She gave everyone EARS! Little cups that go over their real ears, glowing blue, glowing red, glowing green, and now the whole room is DANCING but there is no MUSIC. There is no music!

I checked. I checked so hard. I put my nose in the middle of the floor where the biggest sound should be and there is NOTHING, just feet, just so many feet, all going different directions like nobody agreed on the same squirrel.

That one is glowing red and shaking her hips SO GOOD. That one is glowing blue and doing a completely different good thing. They are hearing DIFFERENT invisible things and they are all SO HAPPY about it. This is the best mystery. This is the biggest ghost I have ever smelled and the ghost is FUN.

My human is glowing green. My human keeps mouthing words at nobody, eyes closed, arms up, so happy, SO happy, and I do not know the song and I do not need the song, I need only that face, that open lifted face, my human's face.

A shoe! A shoe near the wall! I will guard it.

Wait. Everyone's cups just went red at once. They all screamed the same scream! They all know! They ALL know the secret at the same time and I am HERE for the secret, I am part of the herd of the secret, tail going, whole body going.

I still cannot hear it. I have decided this is because the song is for their ears and the love is for mine.

My human is coming down off the floor now, sweaty, laughing, reaching for me. Best song. Best invisible song ever. She smells like cheese later. I can tell. She always smells like cheese later.
