Description

 Image by Stefan Keller  from Pixabay  

Inspired by

  FeastAll beheld is mineFrom instruments I needn’t playTo golden windowsillsMy footsteps echo in grand hallsAnd I feast on unshared meats

By PeterCaliver  


A cold, gilded cage
Hard and hollow, heartless halls
An opulent ache
For wealth cannot satisfy
The true hungers of the soul
