Prompt(s): #4: exploring, "drunken with the light", and a picture of Zacatecas
Disclaimer: Never happened; I made it all up



For Sean, who had arrived only the day before from a misty England, Zacatecas came almost as a shock. Once, almost ten years ago, they had set out to explore New Zealand in a similar way, discovering much more than just that.

After today's long drive Sean tumbled onto the king-size bed, pulling Viggo down with him. He was still high on sharp colours, still 'drunken with the light', as Viggo had recited in the car and his clothes seemed to somehow suffocate him.

He stretched languorously beneath clever hands, colours and light kept safe behind his now closed eyes.

There's a strong sense of the impact of the contrast in light, heat, colour and how it strips away the everyday to leave him open to his lover and to his own senses. thanks for posting.
