Who would yearn for a painting grisaille
Monochrome, usually gray, and so pale?
A person whose life
Overtaken by strife
Is yearning to pass through the veil.

Note: Winning Prize Two in a field of one has put me in a very grave mood, themilum. :(

I'm anxious to find out whose face is on the Prize One bottle, themilum, so I'm providing a deserving verse to capture the honor:

And when like her, O Sáki, you shall pass
Among the Guests Star-scatter'd on the Grass,
And in your blissful errand reach the spot
Where I made One—turn down an empty Glass.
Rubáiyát. Stanza ci.
