I met a boy inside the lion’s cage
of an abandoned zoo. What are you
doing here? the boy said to me
I’m dead I said, and after that we sat
in silence watching where the dark street ends,
imagining the kind of people who used to visit it
and waiting for the lion to return.

That bit gave me the chills.
I think one of the posters on one of your other deviation said how he liked your lighter stuff... I'm the other way around. You have a distinctive style which raises your darker pieces above the usual 'Boo hoo, no-one understands me' type that are all too common on this site.
Like the idea of communicating in silence, too.

It just feels sharper to me that way.
