The Pensive Painter


The allure of mirage
         magnetic,
thirst unquenched
in hidden hope 
         unperceived,
insight intuits
crafty illusion
in life of reality, 
rational awareness 
         absorbed.

Onyx cloud clumps
         condensed,
shadow masked mind
         tenuous,
disguised dreams 
         delusive,
shaped nebulous 
by silver lines, 
foresight outlook
splits spectrum
         reflective 
into colors of trance
in prism 
of optimism.

Convoluted canvas
         capturers 
hideous faces,
makes murals 
         magnificent,
sparkle the contours 
of conceived smile
in vintage vision
of beholder, 
the pensive painter.
