This poem is about art, culture, death, and life.


Poem Artwork

I would place it in Brussels, at the Jewish museum.
Mlle. Victorine, an Empiress in a Matador
Her doves’ eyes open wide, her shape curved, not slim.
The melodies, I Believe by Zamir played forevermore,
If I could paint a saxophone.
Mourn under the enormous brass horn,
Three slain mist with cologne;
She hangs in all her vulnerability, with her maker, she will join.
She is framed in financial despair
Eviction, threats on her life;
In a depressed state, while child rearing with care,
This magnificent beauty hangs, despite pain and strife.
Stress fractures compound inevitably,
As the brass instrument hangs joyfully.

As one would describe a painting or a series of quick pictures these lines hint at the curve of life, happiness, sadness and the ultimate end of life in joy. I did indeed enjoy this Marco. Well written. Bob

Unique and quite interesting. Stretched my imagination.

Say Something Terrorible v3 by RickthePoetWarrior

My mom says ‘If you can’t say anything nice then don’t say anything’. Sorry mom but under the guise of poetic license I penned these beauties.
