“Art is the only
serious thing
in the world.
And the artist is
the only person who
is never serious.”

~ Oscar Wilde

Elfje: (Cinquain)

Dali
abstract realism
very small characters
on very large canvas
surrealism .. .. ,, ,, ,, ,, (seriously ? ? ?)
.
Senryu: 5-7-5 ( Haiku with people and their emotions/feelings as a topic)
.
forever jealous
never content with his own
wanted others things
.
Poem:
.
disorder is the work of an evil spirit
ugly has no bounds or limit
souls that believe they have something to prove
statues and memorials they want to remove
destroying a government is anarchy
believing there is no need for a moral code, insanity
yet the majority are afraid of the minority
defund the police, let’s give evil the authority
the press divides when they take sides
a few wealthy trying to push the tides
there is no need to apologize
peace allows everyone to share the prize
let’s use that energy to make an improvement
let the teaching of history define our movement
let God be the definition of pure order
maybe tomorrow, within our border

“There is bad
in all good authors:
what a pity
the converse
isn’t true!”
.
~ Philip Larkin
.
Elfje:
.
trip
right foot
one step forward
left foot comes next
walking
.
Haiku:
.
unseasonably warm
natures decade cycle
skipping a season
.
Poem:
.
what price love
to relinquish heart and mind
to abandon what we dream of
to the obvious become blind
or is it just to compromise
to follow the dictates of the soul
to be fooled by the disguise
to enjoy being out of control
what price love
faith, the majority get it right the first time
the selfish must try more than once
