Vincent Willhelm van Gogh
a difficult talent to truly know
unwise love choices-Eugenie Kee&Sien
made him stick to brush not pen
Finance support from brother Theo
loosed his giftings to flow
in dark landscapes&still life
too bad, without a wife
From Ecole de Beau Arts a matric
In Antwerp he creates his pics
Then to Paris to mix with the best
lived an artist life with great zest
Upon the death of Pa Theodorus
Vincent does portraits&busts
as his love life to Margot ails
so also his pointillism fails
He then met Agostina Segatori
& a brief affair the world did see
An interest in all things Japanaise
then to Arles were the sun does blaze
The artists colony was not a success
Vincent cut off an -ear-but I digress
progressively VG became deluded
'a mad redhead,'the locals said
Genius & delusion marries as one
but a recognisable usp is done
with broad brush& wavy line
a reputation to outlast his time
In Arles he is hospitalised
&unique art realised-
then with a gun suicides
on canvas though his genius resides

The breast of moonlight drips
The its misty milk upon spoon of eyes
And appetite my thirsty lips
Behind the bars of distance, love sighs
And fingers clutch the gauze
Of silky dreams to bring the body
Warm against its passion's cause
That rivers me in lakes of honey.
The night splashes its essence now
With the fragrance of mountain girls
I stutter with love, and now way how
To see deep of glittering pearls
That long ago no moon could contest
The bride of hope and loveliness
Where sultry sweet thy desires caress
My eternal need and loneliness.
You too was a distant world too far
To reach, a voyage I began
Stranded in a silent void, bereft of star
Bereft the fortunes of a man
And just like the moon you did flee
Across an empty sky to follow the sun
Left me the haunting dreams of beauty
Left me standing where vertical rivers run.
