It IS very sad. And your black and white image of desolation and intriguing adventure seem only too fitting. So with our pens so many of us will vent our inner hidden miseries....which momentarily at least, gives relief. But are these fresh illusions? Are we only escaping in our imaginations? Ah, but that is how mankind is wont to escape for these many centuries...in our imaginations soaring above the murky pit that in reality overwhelms our lives. Yet it is only another delusion. Only in God's salvation as He's given it in His Word, do we find the peace, hope, and life for which we feel ourselves forever hopelessly pining. You excellently portrayed the dismal situation, frustrations and attempted bitter self-deliverance. It is a sorrowful, desperate cry. But who am I to speak so freely? I liked it, and loved your use of end-rhyming.
