painted&sculpted with good grace
On his death wife Jeanne lost all hope

stretch artist, A. Modigliani amplifies
sketching curvilinear bodies, weak eyes 
his far-fetching figures still mystify us
despite his premature death to meningitis.

"Modigliani Morning"

her external motor, brash,
she was more New York
than Paris, but then,
Rome was inside her 
speaking words

like Modigliani

Untouched by form of his time
Dying so young of TB
His talent remains for us to see-
Cut short this tragic life,
Followed so quickly by his wife.

Modigliani 1884-1920 

Note: Two days after his death his pregnant wife Jeanne,jumped from a 5th floor window.

simple & characterised without guile
an oval face and elongated neck *
peculiar & sans a reality check
