She played
Stirred the waters
Into a gentle whirlpool

Never seen
Except by her Lover


One Moon kissed

darkest  night…..      yet  warm  and  soft

wrapping  ’round  me  like  summer

sweet  scent  of   roses

   taste you….     breathe you in….

      to gaze into your eyes and say….    

hello….     it’s me

artwork  ~  “1924 (first abstract painting, Chelsea)”   Ben Nicholson
{  fair use }

This is the first abstract Ben Nicholson painted and is one of only a few such works made by British artists in this period. Younger, avant-garde artists tended to concentrate on still life and landscape in the twenties using them as vehicles for formal experiment. Only three early abstract paintings by Nicholson are known and all of them display evidence of a sophiscated understanding of Cubism and its insistence on shallow space and overlapping planes. This painting was very advanced in the context of British art in this period, where the notion of abstraction was essentially equated with the distortion of natural appearance.

you  don’t  see
your  elevated  opinion  of  yourself

thinkin’  you  got  something  unique
thinkin’  you  got  something  to  offer
thinkin’  you  got  a  grand  purpose

giving  you  the  “right”
the  moral  justification
to  treat  me  like  shit

you’re  a  toxic  muther fucker
just  get  outta  my  face

if  you  wanna  crucify  somebody
there’s  some  wood,  some  nails,
a  ladder  and  some  tools

show  the  world  how  special  you  are
and  crucify  yourself

this poem is in response to this song ~
i  guess you might say that i object to the lyrics…
or at least the  judgmental  attitude
