PORTRAIT
|
A Portrait first made,
Shed tears for breath, Maker, your smile, Lost somehow now betrayed. A portrait just dressed, Colored firm and fresh; Maker you know the soul, And the layout behind that; Haggard and blown, In that weary robe, A steed, never she rode, What’s inside the abode? Cry out – your tears!? Mixed with colors, a maze, A salty vision, I know the taste, The horse now stabled, And the picture framed, Somehow clipped to the doors,
Painter – you strive for more;
Would you bargain me the right?
To kiss her brows, And more on her toes, And more with her cores; Would you let me to the door? Slammed behind, With fertile blood, And blended folks; Oh! I am lost Again at the sight, Few more nights, Day makes only lights. Oh! I am for the lights, If not? A portrait in my flight, Peaceful and glowing bright; What I longed for, Now stripped to pieces, Lifeless – beats no more, Plugged in the whirlpool of saddles; Would you swallow? Passersby once more, The broken portrait, Retailed to your fortune; Spoiled brat, you smile, Through the frame, But who is your bearer? A darkness flowed and no names, The soothsayer now cries, And plays with my time; The glory of a sigh portrait, Brushed throughout and divine. |
