Derelict, we stand
Bathed by our own shadows
Memorials to the past
Forgotten monoliths
Straight-backed, yet crooked
Gathered together
In gloom, we're presiding
We grey men
Mirroring real life

I was trying to pick two lines I liked best and could not. THAT is a good sign. I loved this. I felt it spoke so keenly to the feeling of dereliction and emptiness. Excellent my talented friend. xo
I aspire to be as good as you. And for my hair to be as long, but it ain’t gonna happen 🤔
Bollocks! You are head and shoulders over me, and anyway who is comparing? I’d like to be able to walk as far as you. I’d like to live where you live. I’d like to inhabit your universe. Maybe I will one day. Meanwhile I shall let you rub off on me.
This is the first thing I’ve read this morning….. It made me splurt my coffee. I hope you feel guilty!!!! And yes, I made splurt up.
HA HA HA HA! BRILLIANT! (evil chuckle)
😳
It would take you away away from writing, Richard, unless you let it turn into dreadlocks 🙂
Good point. I’d probably have to wash it often too, which I can’t be doing with..
I agree, far too distracting. Best keep it crew cut that way there’s no need to waste time combing it either
🤠
Loved this, Richard. Those grey man …
Thanks, Diana. 🙂
Bravo!
