(*inspired by David Hockney's "Mr. and Mrs. Clark and Percy")
she wants love her eyes express
wretchedness falling short of
beautiful though rich
her diamond earrings hips/hands:
communiqué
the man ignores earfuls
feet bare hair long beard traced
on chin he eyes the painter
bored
they've not moved in or out
sparse vase/flowers touch of
pretense
unplugged phone
blue lamp crystal
would have been in baby's room
the air outside is
blue
the table abstract on the wall
his sweater
all blue
even Percy's white coat
tinged with it but oh no
not her blood red velvet gown
*Ekphrasis is relating one art medium to another...A descriptive work of prose or poetry, a film or even a photograph may... enhance the original art and so take on a life of its own.
