Notes About The Poem

A John Pper tribute

Magnificent In Decay

stylised
   landscapes rural&urban
   churches&momuments
historic in appearance
      openhand
     egalitrian 
vidual arts
modernism in manner

planes of colour
       antiquarian abstractions
      tographically stained
yet
    radical&progressive
    a constructurist
in
   decorated deight

ancient yet
              modern
               representitive
the avant garde
in
 vocabulary form
     firmanent reorientated
    chimed encounters
         with
             the unexpected
art
    emancipated
              but
                 related to life
