Pastels

The pastels—

what cloud could dampen

that yellow?

Alone

Always remember
we’re zipped
together.

Barnett Newman, “Fourth Station” (1960)

Lull

 

Close-up of one of Ragnar Kjartansson’s miniature set designs

 

From the camera roll
when I wasn’t drawing,
this photo
of someone else’s art:
a sea widening
past an inlet
into the sea foam green
I love,
an island
perhaps with sea birds
some uncertain distance away.
I stopped because
the waves would knock me over.
I stopped because
I wasn’t a strong-enough swimmer.
