The Artist


He is not painting
He’s carving metaphors
Sculpting language
Each figure cast on the canvas
as sharp as a razor blade
Sometimes between lines and curves
his mind boggling signals hit you on the face
He’s not writing, he’s painting images
on children’s mind
Showering words like stars
Each story rides on a train
to no where special
Net of dreams cast upon
pages like diggers gold
He’s not singing
Wings of melody are iron nails
Each note hitting his
own mirrored fantasy
riding in the whirlpool of yearnings
He’s not walking
He’s gazing the universe
Chasing the light and shadow
as they occur
Beneath his footsteps
the ground is a bubble wrap
He’s spinning the life’s web
as fragile as the last page
of a document burning on fire
Caught between time and space!
