RODIN’S NEW ICON
Should Rodin live today would he be inspired
To sculpt a marble sequel to THE THINKER
Modern ethos means fresh image is required
To become an old to new generation linker
[Perhaps in stone less pale, a little pinker!]
He might witness casts of posture stereotypical
And find there inspiration for his art
With perceptive focussed eye and viewpoint quizzical
An image would develop in his heart
Of a body bowed, head inclined toward hand sinister
While index digit stabs from aspect dexter
Then with his hands he’d clay or stone administer
To create a new iconic symbol; and name it: THE TEXTER

I want to be a linker
show the connectivity in random
but my absence from the collective
has
prevented fruition.
I know you've seen everything
little sister
Through big brother's slots
in a three cent
cardboard box,
but I want to show you
the silvery spider strings
of ordinary things,
I want that light to shine
in a coffee shop sign
and froth realization in your cup
because the doughnut knows
nothing
and
everything
and
forever
and
continuity.
No milky dilution
or sweety frame
the truth must be a stark dark.
Then will you see
the connection between you and me
is stronger then solitary.
