Empty Theatre of Loneliness

EMPTY  THEATRE  OF  LONELINESS



You want to leave the stage, the action shun.
                                 
But  a  cold black hand grips your soul.
`
Nothing can be done.  Nowhere you  can run. . . . 

. . . from the inside wholeness someone stole.

It’s a tragedy spun with only a single role. 

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Entered in Francine Roberts's  Contest "One English Quintain"
