Absent Artist

An interplay of vibrant colors on canvas pulsates as a bright blur of tinges and tints; at an angle, it's a throbbing, intergalactic slow-mo swirl, a mute explosion of hues; at another, it's fluid light from a prism in the depths of a micro- protoplasmic sea; a glorious sunrise, a sad sunset, perhaps, myriads of refracted throughts and feelings; the mood and temper of the beholder, the ultimate judge, hard- headed and fickle: does the absent artist make sense in what was or wasn't painted, or does that matter?
