The Party

The party was marvelous, Steve left nothing out.
The drinks in the bathtub, a generous amount or thereabout.
The food was amazing, you name it and it was there.
There was hot chips, cold chips, beef, fish and fowl, it was amazing fair.
The party went on, well into the night.
Steve anticipated problems to stop any fight.
An incredible time was had by all.
People agreed that the party was an incredible "ball".
Then a man walked up to Steve fancy dressed in all black.
Everything faded...the man whispered "sorry Steve, great party, but you can never go back".

I've been living in the same place since for ages and still not had a flat warming party. Maybe unconscious fear of something like what happens in your story is holding me back Peter! :-)))Good one.

I agree with Drew. Eek! Loved the sound of the party and the finale. It sort of reminded me of The Eagles Hotel California... ‘you can never leave...’
More of this kind please, Peter😋
