A Daver ekphrasis,a combination of interest ( like many of us here artist poet )as this open form ekphrasis reveals

BEING JOAN MIRO

All the common fears and complaints of life
      may be put to canvas
                                   one need only tap the gift	   
 Of looking into
                              of looking through
That  imperceptible  crowd  of creative gravity                                  
      where might be found
Things      no-things      no-forms
      afloat     whirling    or resting
In the unconscious mansions

Find the brush’s will    not your own
Groups of many colors appear
      Scattered or blended
Shapes of no earthly form
Infinite the possibilities

Put here-and-now aside
Let the brush have its will
