THE STORY OF BELLE
Belle had been a young thing
Belle had been a young thing
with beauty and not much sense
She decided to take a powder
instead of recommence
She left her journal open
her last thoughts for all to see
followed the powder
with a snort of strong whiskey
She barely made it to her bed
where she disrobed shaking
her pose intended to tell
restraints were her own making

She left her journal open
her last thoughts for all to see
followed the powder
with a snort of strong whiskey
She barely made it to her bed
where she disrobed shaking

restraints were her own making

your dark side is in PERFECT order... fits the photos perfectly.
Alas a too common end for many....
Nice work. The two photos tell such a story, and you've brought it together perfectly.
I love that you brought the 2 photos together it's cool seeing how similar they are! I was also going to kill her but I went another direction. So many artist's die this way...
I think you've told the story well Gail.
All the best Jan
This is one reason I don't journal. You never know when you might accidentally kick the bucket. :)
Dark but a truly fascinating take.
I guess I like wistful and dreamy more . . .
A sad end, a very typical youngster
Shakespearian !
Kutamun,
I could not reach your website. Thank you.
Excellent...I like how you paired this with one of his other photos...
Thanks for sharing
She sure did not have much sense. Snorting the powder followed by whiskey was fatal,bad decision!
Hank

Oh, yeah. And I love that ending.
=)
Oh poor sad Belle, as the story goes you can't unring a bell!
