He preferred simple shape&form
even when expression was the norm...

Oskar loved Alma's feminine charms
painted himself entwined in her arms
He entitled it 'Bride of the Wind'*
Mahler/Kokoschka talents twinned.

Day-after-day the widow
"listens out for the ordinary" 
and hears only susurrant voices
until deafness overcomes her

Oh my...Oskar Kokoschka
why did you so love Mahler's Alma
All can see your infatuation with her charms
in this portrait lying in her arms*

She was the passion of his life
Alma,fated never to be his wife,
In a relationship of tempest & strife-
As figures drifting upon a sea,
Sadly the closest,to eternal love for he.

Tribute to Oskar Kokoschka-see the 'The Tempest'...

Withinthe Circle
Within the Circle 
Around the burned down stable, near
the oak that was struck by lightning,
there is a silence within the stillness.
I can hear screams of stabled mules
running in circles trampling each other
into a bloody mass and falling beams.
Within the circle sheltered by whispering
leaves I can hear rattling of chains and
the forest afar sings of endless sorrow.

Premium Member Lost In a Sea of War
“What is there to say? They are my friends. I would do it again, over and over — for I hate cruelty and intolerance.”    Oskar Schlinder

LOST IN A SEA OF WAR

daringly intrepid,
dazzlingly, dizzily
protecting the poor,
the unarmed, the kids,
those lost in a sea
of war — Schindler
and his musical score,
outscoring the hate
that seemingly won’t abate
but for God steps into
the shoes of man
