Premium Member Fleas Chickadees Chimpanzee and Mr Paul Klee
In magnificent memory of Vee See’s zaniest chimpanzee
Probably discussed by merry monkey’s chipping chickadee
Readily and aptly apparent by three who seldom agree
Incredibly supping with Mamie, Marjorie and Mr. Paul Klee

Please pass the honey and the light brie said brazen bumblebee.
No one capably eats brie with...

A Stroll with Paul Klee
To pick up a line and take it for a stroll.
The essential is within, the mystics say,
but equally important is the outside:
a stunning summer sky, two wind-whipped clouds,
in the intense green background a dazzling yellow field.

The line crosses dead centre. To draw breath for surfaces,
smooth...

Premium Member Light Broadening II Paul Klee
sink beneath the surface every time goaded
same event distorted until colour coded
and always bedraggled and gasping for air
terrified that this is actually fair
failings cascade like works of art
brokeness perfectly playing it's part
around each hell bubble is success
ability to self rescue out of each mess
though at...

An experimental start

Paul Klee set the art world free.

Premium Member Landscape with Yellow Birds - Paul Klee
All the things to recall
Trapped within a labyrinth 
Giving dead eye stares
Of disapproval and encouragement 
No bubbles for up and out
Or airflow to get bearings
Just a maze
With a gaze
That stops me
In my tracks
I know I'm under
Know I'm under
But I must have
Taken a deep breath
To stay...

Premium Member Ghost Chamber with the Tall Door - Paul Klee
You can draw me in
But I'm always in the blank space
The void of "just stepped outside"
Though my hand could rub the ink
Maybe I'll sit staring at stained fingertips
Proving I was there, made an impact
Even changed the scene
It's all illusion, I just cast a brief shadow...

Premium Member Fish Paul Klee 1925
It's deep blue, we're submerged
Thoughts are bubbles, feelings purged
It's short term memory, life span
Repeating circles, since time began
We're wrong place, right plane
Shafts of dark, but light remains
Labrynthine world, yet open space
Blind eye staring blind eye in the face
Decompose as decompress
Waste existence pondering what to confess
Windmills...

Premium Member Twittering Machine Paul Klee 1922
The hand crank sounds about right
There's a them, with a master plan
But how much variance is there?
A rotation becoming monotonous
Until there's no hand in sight
Those with feet fixed to the wire
They squawk and twitter, flail...
Taking no comfort from each other
Just enough blueprint lingers
For the plan...

 Klee set the art world free
in his Once emerged from the grey of night' poetry


Unifying colour & words
An idea never previously heard
An experimental start
With his posey picture art-

Matisse
   brushed
no more..
                scissors
                paper
                glue
the
          colour
          cut-outs
 littered
the floor
     with
         shapes
              anew
so blue

so blue
 of
    osmosis mode
maquettes
   & abstracts
shapely
but
    stark



Once emerged from the grey of night.
