Canvas





Canvas



Such a large canvas and no thought
what to do with it
How to fill it
How to make it bleed
running running
ideas and widgets of the mind
cycling swimming
performing any kind of action but
writing
denying and fleeing
leaving the emptiness behind
the unempty emptiness
emptiness of a heart
no longer full
of
love

  1. the best art says something the reader was just thinking about...hence this poem. Like rossi says in this podcasts (maybe too much) is the writer's responsibility is to make a connection. You did that.
