into that distance

 


you love when you spill the colors

 

not just the rainbows

 

but black and white too


 

your world a frieze

 

where the figures are flushes

 

from the stroke of your brushes


 

existing in broken dreams
where former lives are lurking

 

distorted and detached


 

vain woven pictures of the forgotten

 

cracked in grey bits
like shallow predicted essence


that portrait withered by slivers of pain
as the vanished
shadows pass along

 

dazed and scattered


 

they become relatives as if it is compulsion
as my day on date expires
into that distance that you so revered
