Hello BC

This is an excellent piece full of contrasting images and metaphors. It feels like the emptiness is a creation of what can't be possessed. It's like the longing for a drink twists the gut into a pained mass.

Super.

Take care,

Michael

Very visual emotional poem, loved it.
Particularly the middle verse.

As Michael says, this piece is rich in imagery. Good use of figurative language is essential in dark poems and this write is awash with it.

All the best,

"Emptiness in an overpopulated world" my favorite line. You can be with someone or around many others and still feel alone. Nothing but bodies with no inside. So very sad but true. Thank you for sharing. All the best
