His art self contained & absorbed
perfect though expensive 'daubs'...

Lost Degas
Lost Degas
Loves parts in tears of red
Revenge is found with dirt on a spade
The cards of life tell naughty tales
Aces may be black or red, however
The proverb of luck will bite you back
So bury the dead very carefully
As the ballerina dances above us all...

A Whisper In Red
The whisper in red
I had been watching TV
And as often happen when I watch
A minute sleep only
A wisp of a young woman in a red ballerina dress.
Sat on the floor leaning her head at my leg.
When seeing I was awake, she got up
And disappeared silently as a falling leaf.
Later that evening I watch a French art program
And the lady in red was painted 120 years ago.
Was the one, the expert, spoke about
They knew it was Degas but none knew who she was....

Blank verse
Dancers In Blue
Delicate angels in blue chiffon
With elongated necks, wishful as a swan
Laced up toes of silky pearl
Gathering together for a whirl
All eyes on the ballerinas in motion
Purely, vividly perfumed in a potion
With long bound brunette hair
Poised with ivory skin so fair
Spiral threads in a timberland of aquamarine
In a fluent, feminine picturesque scene
Inspired by Brain’s contest (picture poems)
Edgar Degas (1834-1917)
