Notes About The Poem

Despite the cracks in the wood, the apparent decay, and the growth of moss, would you believe these aren’t pieces of lumber, but rather ceramics? Artist Christopher David White uses clay as his material in making deceptive sculptures that are simply mind-boggling. Works like ‘Asphyxia’ (the human head) and ‘Cycle of Decay’ (the wooden hand) […]

- Cracks In the Facade -

chaos elements of normality
insects buzzing in lamp dome
reveals alluring mouths

he breathes out a photographic desire
the contact lenses pops out
caught in pink mesh stockings

black curls colored bluish by the sunlight
like the children's drawn doodles
no shiny surfaces
