THE LANDSCAPE

LIKE A GIANT OPEN ROOM WHERE NO ONE CARES FOR WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY
WHERE WHAT YOU BRING IN YOU MUST SIT WITH
WHERE TIME IS NOT OF THE HUMAN SCALE
AND THE VEILS DIVIDING WHAT WE CALL "MY LIFE", FROM LIFE, ARE SOMEWHAT THINNER
TO SENSE THAT WHICH LIES BENEATH & BEYOND
AND WATCH THE PLAY OF GOOD AND EVIL ON THE STAGE
AND TO LOOSEN THE ATTACHMENTS
SHAKE OUT THE SHAPES AND COLOURS AND LET THEM FALL
TO REARRANGE INTO PHRASES AND VERSES
AND MAKE A POEM OF ALL THIS WITH PAINT AND BOARD
THIS IS MY WORK
