Notes About The Poem

 

Lexi Perplexes Me

There once was a paint brush, without hesitation, was stretching the branches of color before me Bold geometrics, artistic affections, some which have tangled, mixing the hues of crimson and umber, which changes the view from where I am standing, with such admiration Wedged deep in my fancy I'm drawn to a tree Yet almost imagine, a deer looks at me with antlers, or branches, which?,... I can't decide... Is this a mixed message, once buried to hide? A view of the simple, is better by far becomes the exception like reaching for stars
