Art?
It's a chipped frame - pane
tacky upon touch - finely flaking
depictions of unknowns
authorship of mute convictions...
coaxings from the heart of Nox
alleys - murals mildew
galleries where no one walks
It's umber pigments
pooled in Scarborough rows
of gold on mango
dandelion medallions
diffusing hues
for use by fertile hands
It's lungs of bellows
catching tradewinds
mixing molten silks - all those glosses...
unstirred by dross
bending blended motes
They sway
devotedly
dancing glasses
amassing...emoting...
It's scritching
graphite whispers
on chaste pasty maiden pages
in bashful nights
compositions with covers spread - awaiting
progressions into those
sweet
tight
bindings
down slits...tight little seams
ink gestating into dreams
The lust of soul
to become seen

Thank you Dude Dave! I almost stacked it away in forever-never-ville (closet). Glad I saw it, spruced it up and got it up. Do you ever leave stuff around? I'm a wreck...
Your comments are always a happy sight :)

Haha!! So good to know I'm not alone :) It just be part of the process I suppose.
Re. Art?
Bravisima Atomik! Your masterful use of art encrusted words and images is beautiful and bears reading over and over. I find the last stanza subtley erotic.

Thank you! It was a little easier to project that energy into the writing bit (saved the best for last) because it's obviously more dear to both myself, and the readers ;) Thank you!

What piece of art is this about? Would love to view it!
This poem delves into the nuances of art's timeless nature to evoke a response out of the viewer.
Excellent, Atomikone!

Oh thank you! It was sort of a musing on art in general, each stanza captures a different medium, or form of art. I'm honored by the RL entry!

I echo Gahddess regarding Stanza 4, which is nicely end capped by the simplicity of 5.
