With furrowed brow
and a soul full of
sorrow,
I trudge the
lonely road of
perdition.
Providence guides me
as I stumble and fall.
Not even sex or
chocolate
can save me now.

Wow. This pretty number capably tempts the definitions of the term "masterpiece." Gorgeous in succinct brevity, it's excellently rendered with perfect imagery and a fitly haunting, damning poignancy. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you.
When it gets so bad your only saving grace is that you know for sure it can't get any worse .. maybe ... In a nutshell, nice one .. Neville 😎👍
I appreciate you.
I love the pairing of the most serious with the light humor of sex and chocolate it makes the whole poem bitter sweet.
Thank you.
My pleasure Thomas
Surely sex and chocolate can still save you! 🤣 Thomas, I've been away from here and won't be here as often due to life, but I always love your work. 🌹
You are the best.
Poignant and impressive
ty.
