Kostabi Surreal

Keep art form crisp, keep shades of grey; Offer to bare, offer to show; Sense strokes made brisk, sense lines that sway; Take wear and tear, take tint and glow; Art lines propose, art sparks appeal; Bring profound fare, bring passion's flow; Indulge fond dose, indulge stark feel. Surreal form flings, surreal art hurls; Urge moves the dice, urge mulls the case; Rich purpose rings, rich motive swirls; Roaring shades spice, roaring tones trace; Entice wild pain, entice mad touch; Angst beyond price, angst between space; Loiter with gain, loiter with much. Picture the touch, picture the face; Look beyond shades, look between tints; Align bold nudge, align stern pace; Yield image made, yield textured mint; Blaze blooming bust, blaze brazen boom; Open mind floods, open heart knows; Offer sharp thrust, offer pulse room; Kinder full blood, kinder prime show. Ideas and plots, ideas and thoughts; Do grand surprise, do great display; Etch surreal thought, etch pregnant lot; Aim blunt reprise, aim canvas stray; Sign fragrant spot, sign searing slot!

Ideas and images are somewhat haunting and taunting in texture.)
