Playing To An Audience Of One, Himself   1 comment

He Plays To His Shadow (Afternoon Drinks On the Copper Queen Saloon Balcony)
— Photo-Artistry by kenne

On A Bisbee Afternoon

he plays to his shadow
devotedly on his violin
nobody listens
love torturing itself
to rise above conversations
lost in discontent
limits of self-expression
a saloon window reflection

there is no tragedy
on the Queen’s saloon balcony
the smell of lavender
lingers from the ghosts
of the hotel whores
who are not indifferent
listening to classical strings
becoming a delightful moan

he plays for us
on his passionate violin
as nobody listens
love torturing itself
to rise above conversations
lost in discontent
the limits of self-expression
reflected in the saloon window 

there is no tragedy
in the old mining saloon
the smell of lavender
lingers from the ghosts
of the hotel whores
who are not indifferent
listening to lonely strings
turning into joyful cries
