Turns on the Floor




Turns on the Floor

On this cold
dark rainy night,
they took turns,
between drinks.
Dreams.
Sleep.
Escape.
Not even death
was mentioned.

Being artists,
at least one
with a sharp
dangerous pen,
had to be thinking
of a title.
Bliss?
Murder?
Maybe even suicide
were momentarily
Considered?

From the session I attended a couple of nights ago at a pub.
9”x 12” ink, oil sanguine and chalk on tinted paper

Fountain Pen: Platinum Carbon fine point

  1. Could be bliss. Yes, that's the interpretation I'd like to choose. But...another, rather uncomfortable, notion keeps edging in...could it be the double suicide of doomed lovers?
    Well, whatever the story...these are really beautiful and evocative...:))

    1. A much more interesting story, I agree.
      Thank you.
