Blue
Paint me!
Paint me, Pablo!
Oh, Oh!
Paint me!
Picasso me, Blue!
Half here,
Half there,
Blue.
Make me all your
Blue!
Period.

White
Paint me
Daintily,
You, Degas,
I am your
Ballerina.
Paint me, quaintly,
as I lace
a slipper up
for You.
En Pointe.

Burnt Umber
Ah! Dali, Dali!
Salvador, I
I
I am the face on a clock,
stopped.
Dali Me!
I will be a martyred
Saint,
your
Mystery.
Surrealistically.

Red
Pollock? Pollock ME!
Throw me to the Floor!
Up against the wall and
Hard, Harder!
Splatter Me! Shatter Me!
Make me Your Passion!
Flatter me!
Paint me, Pollock!
Red, bold as
YOU?
Uniquely

Paint Me!

Yellow
And you? I will hold you
through this Starry Night,
I'll be your stars
I'll be with you.
Dear Vincent, Vincent,
Sadness, madness
I know you...
Paint Me?
I will stay with you
until the light comes
Bursting, Bursting
Yellow, Yellow Everywhere!
These Sunflowers bursting through...
Yes, I see! Blinding Beauty
Madness?
        I do know you.

Canvas
Paint Me!
I am waiting.
I sit for you
stand, dance
dress, undress
look away or lay.
Lay down for,
with you.

Here I sit
and wait for you.
Quiet,
Naked,
Honest,
Raw,
Taut,
New.

Paint Me...
