SUNFLOWERS
*
how can anyone who has
been touched by
Vincent's spirit
see sunflowers
the same again?

Paul Gauguin saved
his life after his ear
was severed and so...
.. when we see
the sun flow
in sunflowers
we will remember
2 who inspired each other
into 1
2 who became: Van Gauguin

Vincent tried a 2nd time to
kill himself..
because his brother Theo,
his financial support,
had a child.. and was worried
about money...

Vincent who sold 1 painting
before his death.. killed
himself over perceived money lack
while recently 1 of his paintings
sold for 82.5 million dollars.

DAILY HOURLY MIRACLES
*
First dawn is linear
.. then streaks and rays
til the sun pours light
total and spherical

First souls love
logic
.. then glimpses of tuition
.. and then they create
with laws of miracles
*

INGATHERED LIGHT
*

It seems the sun

ingathers his beams

when he sets

and goes to rest

but his ribbon rays,

streaming light,

are ever blazing

beyond the

pinking west
