PAUPER AND KING
_______________________

It was right as rain
That had gone to the left

It was the Pauper of Pain
And the King of Theft

The Queen of Sin
The happy .. Joker of Death

Insidious

Up to and including it's Last Breath.

Vitsec,

This example of your talent, this bred of your very hand, is the best example yet of the worth of writing so little and then, impacting so deeply. This poetic thrust is indeed very powerful.

I appreciated this read, Vitty. You were quick, concise and on the ball. Words that touch us, reaching down deeply inside, and then, bringing to the fore your own styles of true depth and wordplay. Word meaning. " Pauper and King " is definitely publishable. Definitely worthy.

Be well, O'l chum,
