if i were a painting
i’d be blurred contours
thick with texture and mystery
id be of limited colour
with smudged grey outlines
and razor sharp white streaks
added as an afterthought
i would not be done with precision
but abstract and surreal
a conceptual work instead of
clear and defined
id be loving irony
in soft diminutive glimpses
of paradise blues
id be thin vivid lines of
orange and yellow worked over
red glimpses through thick
grey and black minutes
forced into green shadows
my mind would be
empty boxes with blue lines
pointing to something like
the soul
my heart would be a
red square in black lines
beating difference
i would be studied
but never understood
and it would be never
before anyone noticed the
viole[n]t streak in this
backdrop of red
worked over black
