the coin falls
dropped in the well
bouncing off walls
deep to hell

a muffled plumpf

is all to tell

A nice 'dry' humour which, as it should, leaves much to the fertile imagination...I enjoyed this :) Jack. PS. Thanks for the kind reviews.

This is like Silverstein channeling Poe. It should be accompanied by a drawing of a kid looking into a well with flames shooting out of it and burning his hair off. Very well done.

Your delicious style, coupled with your interesting subjects and your irreverent titles make you a force to contend with and a future addiction. Very charming.
