In the year 2099 a group of
college students and there
now freind " the Disgraced"
Professor Morse Twigg. Used
a time machine to travel to the
year 1899 to find the Lost
treasure of Muzo Chivar
which is cemented under
the south eastern side
of the in the fountain. The fountains
name was omitted but the facts
had the Professor to believe that
The actual place was the Fontana Di
Nettuno built in 1888 in italy.
They rehearsed being invisible for 3;00
to use the time to remove the treasure
before it was actually placed
beneath the fountains south eastern side.
"Conte de Fee's " spoken to
Mendes and Messenger would be the code.
And Figa tascabile meant return to ship!
Agentinian Lucio Fontana
had a limited art formula
He became signficant in middle age
his monochromes were all the rage
A trip long wanted awaitng me.
Up at the Eiffel Tower looking below
Testing my luck at the Fontana di Trevi
"London's Calling" me
Tempting me
Big Ben's not Far
Off to hundreds of miles away
Where sakura blossoms flutter all around me
Blooming for me just once
J-rock fills my ears
A lovely unexpected sound indeed
Then suddenly I'm awake
Brought back from my daydreams
All the while thinking
That dream doesn't have to be out of reach.
Void
beyond
the canvas-
space into
art.
Ekphrasis after Spatial Art by Fontana.
