Lament

Stars fade
 from my empyrean realm
fantasies escape
 my begotten dream
leaving me, as a last breath
 never to return anytime soon.
I treat myself to solitude
 with Monet’s and murals around
looking burlesque and bleak
 what has left or who?
I do not know
 gouts of blood and
smear I see
 in my reflection
with traces of apoplexy
 preparing me, to stage
in one of the most
 vexatious soliloquies..


p.s: Inspired by an art work done by my brother.
Original work is named Soliloquy.

Deep verses, as always :)
Question regarding the artwork: Was it done in Photoshop?

Inkblot said...

'Treat myself to solitude'-lovely line. 'Burlesque and bleak'-great analogy for the condition described, and awesome oxymoron.

A profound state, nay an image, of stillness is rendered by these last lines. I am led to ponder on immobility and what contrast it can offer against, well, death. Hmm.

Thought-provoking. And yes, yes, yes: stunning. ^_^
