no joy divided

catefrances

standing at a crossroads
to lose
or gain a soul
a city rising high above
a charnel house
for forgotten youth
dystopic utopia
i wander through,
it's all i do
just wander through it all
eternal sundays
wet with degrading tears
dark places
empty spaces
dereliction creates
devastates
under lowering skies.
an incantation heard
as somewhere someone unseen
takes all the dreams away.
but still
it keeps calling
a mocking voice disintegrates
whilst everything else is kept inside
pushed aside
shunted into some abandoned freight yard
to wait...
to wait...
to wait for what?

Hi Cate, it's been a while ey

I like it sooo much.
I like the way your short phrases make a huge impact on me.
It may also be the whisky talking, but ... an old Belgian sying goes :
When the booze is in the man, farmer watch your geese... or something like that

In vino veritas, you see

Touching, really

It's bastardized version of "when the booze is in the man, the wisdom is in the can" and "when the fox speaks of the passion, farmer watch you geese"

It's funnier
