I sit within my ebony tower
(Once ivory now in corruption
Due to environmental pollution)
Attempting to wield power
(As if the consideration
Is worth any evaluation)
And find myself lost inside
(Pray what shall I do
My kingdom for a corkscrew)
Turned about within the shadows I hide
(No interest in turning on the light
Comfortable with artificial night)
So I look not through these closed windows
Creeping soft into the morrow

Gloom (Gloom)

That's about as gloomy as you can get.
Well done.

Always a pleasure to see you

and your responses
