Empty Drum

A man, but falls low to act a big boy on an empty stomach, yet snaps a meal that a few can enjoy. Amongst the things he hates the most is the mirror steaming his sense of reality to eat it all raw. Truths and falsehood become ingredients for a brew and his true achievements, known by ones lower than a few. To get serious and study, he dresses like a nerd his exhibition of high class to colleagues gets so weird. Some few weeks before officially becoming a husband the universe is aware from the advert of his lips-band. The married man of the year, showcases, using his wife she stares, knowing no one knows about her lonely life. Flambouyant and sparkling, a living so full of spice but his worth when placed on water, is lighter than ice. No electricity, but resonating and scary is the fat naked wire posing the threat of genocide but ends up a cold fire. It’s best if one is a times an onlooker playing the script not written can cause a black cooker. The comedy continues, station after station one or two bumps and he’s exposed to the entire nation.
