The Painter’s Thoughts
I’ll paint you in every color til they melt into a mess of ugly, and the paper dissolves with the remnants of who you were, seeped into every inch of its fabric. No canvas could hold the heavy weight of your spectrum, and it happened once I dipped that brush in. Etched inside, my signature there, even as your body began to tear.

Dear T,
I rather liked how this piece created a number of different images in my mind. First I pictured an artist vaguely looking like Andy Warhol, then I envisioned a model looking like the Mona Lisa, then a bowl of fruit. Go figure. The poem itself has somewhat of a darker overtone but I really liked that it switched my brain into something Salvador Dali-esque.

I really liked that interpretation.. a lot. I’m all for painters, I myself parktake in that activity. Monet is my favorite, and impressionist painters resonate deeply with me. Thank you for sharing :)

Me too. Degas and Manet are fantastic artists as well. And then there’s Seurat. The blurred subject matter in that style of painting always reminds me of life when things aren’t crystal clear. I look forward to your next write. H🌷
