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?
