She is An Abstract Painter
who am i supposed to be
once the man was a seed
and a seed grows into a flower
soon the flower bloomed
just before it was too late
suddenly everything was beautiful
who am i supposed to be
she does not know what to do
as she stares thinly at me
and i ask, ‘who are you?’
she is an abstract painter
but her palette,
is so many shades of blue
i have found,
the stability i always wanted
i never saw stability
as constant chaos
its good when the chaos
is so damn regular,
don’t you know?
James Garratt – 1994
