paintings - 'neath lyrics
i sat in silence
in the company of a lone flame
and the canvas i covered
with the image of all that i dared covet
what i saw lie before me was a jewel of allure
it’s eyes met with mine, fixed in a flight of fancy
i made myself welcome in misapprehension
the depths of which i surely did not conceive
my attempts all in vain to it’s brilliance maintain
and though i gave freely it devoured with greed
one day as if returning from a dream
the howling wind kicked open the door
the dim room lay vacant, save for the easel
and the painting invested with all my honour
i still met it’s eyes, mocking satisfied
i screamed my regret at the laughing design
i looked to the floor and in the filling pool of blood
my reflections lay bare all the damage i’d done
i turned my back and i looked ‘cross the sea
the joyless, gelid tempest turned my piety to dust
knowing once was adored was now held in disgust
as i stood for a moment unmoved
