Vacant Friday Night Returns

A nuance I am unfamiliar with:
Inviting your expatriate friend to my
party. His irresistible aura breezed
his wooly form, crystalline in reputation,
through my kitchen. Of emptiness now,
I know, he took all that was offered him.

Perhaps next when you want my attention
you’ll take a metric ton of C4 to my favorite bar.
The neon
wrapped in flame would be less obtrusive.
