The Bleak Night
a deserted road with abandoned shops
the rubbish piled high
rain splatters in the dark
soaking mould-filled boxes
nearby a cat screeches
primitive cries of fear, loneliness or hunger
the unseen cat wails again
and still the rain falls

Love this imagery Lozzamus! Both the certainty of nature and the uncertainty of its cries.

It's a lovely image, Lozzamus. Your poem can be painted as a very expressive picture.

Dear L,
I love the reference to the howling cat. There is nothing more jarring when you feel at your most vulnerable and lonely than a screeching cat that won’t leave you in peace. As usual, my friend, you hit your target with brilliant descriptions of the nightmare that rejection and the hollow feeling on loneliness brings. Awesome write. H🌷
