Belgravia Court

.





















All the men and women who ever committed suicide suddenly appearing together, seated, at a very long dinner table, in suits and fine dresses. rattleglass with diamond champagne; the dead stand each other up at night and howl from pangs of weakness.
O man of light , I have an evening gown with powder blue gloves but never an occasion to suit them, to only wait disorbed in the end of doomsday light apparantly I, clear as shine see time not shut further far red


















constellations to you my beloved.

  • A former member wrote: an old victorian south... such an antiqued dreamlike power to this...i think i've been there before. in another life. .i felt as though i was peeping from the windows on some sacred society... where we take control of the pain and kill the poetry in us before it kills us... out of fear, woe, out of loving, never being enough... howls of weakness indeed. how devoutly poetic. *leaves offerings of the most romantic fistfuls of moonlight imaginable* xo

    if I read this correctly, this is kind of sad. it sounds like memory or a distant memory of someone who has taken their own life. but I love this place, this gathering of the dead. I would hope that I will be drinking diamond champagne with the broken and lost souls. such a great image you painted, I love that thought. but it does have that despairing feeling of mourning in a sense. but what really summed it up is, "constellations to you, beloved". I loved this, a great piece and definitely awesome!
