One of the great haunts of life, full of expectancies yet fraught with holes in which can swallow you hole if you allow yourself to be lead from the path of enjoyment to that of obsession.
Best wishes,

Ummmm I like this poem and especially the format. I've learned a great deal of writing styles from you Treischel. I may have to try this one as well.

Las Vegas, gambling and the rest of the infestations that is in the root of its omnipotent power begets more than broken dreams and fortunes lost. It begets an evil poisonous corruption. Well done, Tom.

A very effective presentation wherein all elements complement each other well.
The poetry adheres to the stated guidelines and very thoughtfully
Submits a viewpoint from opposing perspectives.

Comment from royowen
A great description of all the things that a modern "Babylon" is like! The language you use in the narrative is brilliantly conceived! It is a very good example of a "Sedoka". Well done! Blessings, Roy.

Ah yes , the town of smoke and mirrors, a lot of plaster and cheap glitz. Love the Sedoka format and the way you made a story out of so few syllables. Don and Vicki

Comment from Petriesan
yes, that pretty much sums up Vegas in my mind. A thin veneer of spectacle covering a seething pit of decadence and despair, of lost dreams and sorrow.
Well done piece
