Beyond the darkness

Postby peter danielsen on Wed Jul 18, 2012 11:04 pm

But beyond the darkness there is a hideous light
Which illuminate the impurities of your face
Your wrinkles and the red edge around your eyes
Bathed in this light you are motivated
To raise the bitter drink
And in the mirrror
you faintly see
an angel with the hand on the switch
...I ..... .... ....... made . ..... ...... by ....... music .. ..... .. ......

Great image Peter.
A bit like that red barrow of William Carlos Williams.
It is so contemporary, sadly.

Agreed!
Powerful images and implications.
Concise!

Well done, Peter!
