Figure and Ground
One world after another
spilling out of the painting
before the painting becomes
just another flat surface
waiting for another mark.
[LSS, 4/20/23]
Not
in the morning
because I avoid
prepositional phrases.
[LSS, 4/3/23]
Sabbatical
The studio
a near-dead
monastery,
sleeping door
hinges and alarm
clocks, my
saints awaiting
invocation.
Disorder A tabletop full of early spring flowers. A pantry crammed with empty vessels. No one feels like eating. [LSS, 3/16/26]
