Something More
I’m painting while feeling cold,
Painting snow-coloured cupboard doors.
I have nothing white warmer than this polo shirt.
I am allowed to paint no colour but white.
But really, that is nothing.
No, nothing would be see-through.
Nothing is black & white.
Nothing is either something or nothing.
Nothing is black & white,
But black & white are not nothing.
Black is nothing white:
White is nothing black.
But they work well together.
A white polo shirt is not a concept.
I keep on nullifying these white doors -
Cupboard doors.
To what extent does specificity matter?
To what extent does repetition matter?
To what extent does specific repetition matter?
What about repetition specific to specificity?
