On the wings of a Griffon
You fly me to the tower of sin
The home of the tortured
You take me to the attic
And lock me in the chamber of hell
Where I will serve my time
The consequences for loving you
In the end I will be reborn a bat
And we'll fly forever towards the moon
The lovers beneath the trees

What a fun read. Slave to Griffon is a wonderful trip for the reader. The chamber of hell to serve out a sentence to become a lover beneath the trees. This brings the reader into the den of corrption to feel the lost soul strangle beneath the consequence of love.

Hmmm... A very different sort of take on the image prompt. Abstract and thoughtful in its presence. Thank you for your entry & Best wishes in the contest!
