In a Ballroom
Emptiness sits at the bar,
consuming himself,
giving feast to the downtrodden,
an empty calorie waste
While on the corner
three Voids sell
themselves to a lonely
Passerby;
circles for a square puzzle
An artist paints a
stranger with
colors become black,
Cold kills a Shadow;
stabs him in the back
The weak grow hungry,
A violin sobs,
Another soul dissolves,
And god begs a Charlatan
for forgiveness

great write, ripe with saddness and left me with an empty melancholy.
You captured a lot here -
"And god begs a Charlatan
for forgiveness"
loved that -

i love the style of this write. very... you know i can't quite describe it. but it's exquisite. yes, that's the word. wow, i'm so inarticulate... anyway, i loved reading this, really. it doesn't spell everything out for the reader which i find fascinating.
excellent.

"three Voids sell

Passerby;"
Three lines which ingeminate the feeling of melancholia. Yet I am only concerned with the cryptics, as you have an intriguing mind to me.
I'll keep re-reading anyway . . . 'tis a good work. |

Well - you had to know I'd be back after your last!
I, like Neptune, am a fan of the cryptic write. I need something to wrap my mind around - and this certainly offers that. Another intriguing write! Sounds like quite an interesting night out!
Dare I confess how many times I've read this already? nah....
