Lament

How sad it is
that after all that vaporous camaraderie,
the moment a raindrop is formed,
it is doomed to fall

Kind of a sad and depressing thought, beautifully phrased and the language is wonderful.

Thank you, thank you very much *in my best Elvis voice

The Elvis voice only works if you can do the upper lip curl, but I heard you in my head and it was spot-on.

"(V)aporous camaraderie" is a brilliant phrase--not only is strikingly inventive, it works on several levels. Taut and clever little piece.

[Gaia Octavia]

Thank you very much

I concur. A clear message, concisely and powerfully stated.
And it's time to do a Prometheus poem.

This is awesome, it has lot of power for just 4 lines. I really like the second line, especially "vaporous camaraderie".

Thank you kindly ☺
