Guitar Strum Lament

sitting alone
in a crowd
strumming a guitar
to The Edge's riffs

a soliloquy soft
amidst a mob shouting for blood

a beau crying for lost love
in silent tears
washed by pouring rain

strumming strumming
singing
and muted howling
about waiting and waiting

beer drowned sorrow
like a shadow in the dark
unnoticed
in a large noisy crowd
