Underworld




****

(Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec. Au Moulin Rouge. 1892/1895)


The creatures of the underworld
 in red and sequins

The people of the underworld
lovers of pleasure, dance and art

The lovers of the underworld
people, creatures

The citizens of the underworld
on stage, in search

The inhabitants of the underworld

creatures 
people
lovers 
citizens

loving
dancing
performing
searching

the world.



****



Quote: "you may see me only as a drunken, vice-ridden gnome whose friends are just pimps and girls from the brothels. But I know about art and love, if only because I long for it with every fiber of my being.Toulouse-Lautrec - MOULIN ROUGE (film)
