"End of Something..."
"And so it ends
Loving stolen glances
All but gone
Only to be replaced by emptiness
Riding sadness-solo-
Mocked by shadows & legal pimps
In cheap colourless, crumpled suits
And not so learned crows
Boasting that ridiculous crown of hair
Stolen eions from a nag's rear
So sign here & here & there!
Sudden darkness set
Silently as he wept
Pen in hand, heart on sleeve
The Poet-the Lover-& the Fool
Drowning in a sea
Of anguish, pain & passion"
CHRISTOS
Poetry by Christos, on the noticeboard outside his Fish Shop, back in the day before it was closed down...the poem speaks to the sadness of the closure...
