Warhol @ Starbucks
The cold & rainy sleepless nights
Return again the caffeine flights.
He settles in, a shapeless hulk
Who isn't there, it's just a husk.
His double's doing all the stunts
While real time is keeping watch,
& passage shown on weary space,
The shadow growing on his face
As vacant gazing from his eyes
Has turned around to look inside.
And even then he isn't free
With whom the one he wants to be,
A distance measured in between
The words that shuttle all unseen
To waft into the bean's domain
Through laptop letting in the pain.

With whom the one he wants to be,
A distance measured in between
The words that shuttle all unseen
These lines - particularly affecting...
Love this write!

That's a sad situation to be, Jade. It feels like he is there for the internet connection so that he can communicate with people. A talented write.

Yes, dearest Grace, very much like that, but only more exclusive, which makes it both exciting, forbidden, and lonely... I thank you so much for coming over for a read. <3

it takes coffee to get thru the long nights;
a separate loneliness within all of the internet...

Quite a depressing pen, Jade. A man never free to escape, banished in the prison that is himself. Talented pen though, a smooth and flawless flow.
