Black Noise In Her Mind

I know her so well she came long ago to visit my being we share beauty and

bedlam boudoir and kindest of spirits as she walks like a cat woman hears like

a bat feeds birds quietly and soothes thunder’s volcano howls with the wolves


Klimt’s Kiss Vermeer’s Girl With A Pearl Earring Botticelli’s Venus Degas’s Dancer

In Repose Fedro’s Much Better With Age she absorbs pastels and paint strokes on

symphonies’ canvas so many facets big bangs and roaring giggling convulsions

Woman Laughing from Goya’s dark paintings a Broken Column like Kahlo’s when 

some Munch’s Scream invades and infests silence deep inside her beautiful skull


Voices shout from profuse directions focus condense and refract confront tease 

torment disagree and interfere with calm serene serenades when a few notes 

tender chords and accord vanish into cacophonies misleading the song


I know her so well admire her resilience and how she copes with the noise the 

disruption the ballet of so many different views pandemonious clangour onslaught

of turmoil while she appears calm on the surface orchestrates quiet composure


How she holds it all together I cannot nearly fathom with all jumbling distance

close to distortion and yet so far from my innocent mind but My Venus Of Milo 

taught me so much most of all and over above that imperfection is a wonderful 

gift to respect share with my soulmate and lover and is sound and complete

Thank you Phil. I had to revise this poem, because I am working on Line's collaboration project. Thank you for your praise, Kai
