Premium Member Undergrowth with Two Figures by Van Gogh
Two figures in a meadow of years crowns with lilacs are their memories moments of beauty but also tears Now, but ghosts, they amble silently Often they walked here in younger days in life, they journeyed, his hand with hers Searching for the sun in a grey malaise a summer rain couldn't wash their tears They like to stroll here 'neath pastel skies among...

Premium Member That starry starry night
when Vincent stumbled home through a drizzle of rain ~ what was going on inside that teeming, torturous brain? Did he blaspheme heaven with every profanity and curse? Or did he gaze in wonder at the stars of his exploding universe, and try to make of their blue and yellow light a poultice for his pain?...

Vincent Van Gogh
His life came to a ruinous end Plummeted into insanity The red-bearded painter With his self-hatred, despair and desperation for understanding He drank yellow paint thinking it would make him happy Locked up in a mental asylum that would shatter any person’s self-belief Deceived Vincent cut his earlobe in an unforeseen calamity But he channelled the awful torment into...

No Expectations
Can a song be so sad it becomes beautiful? A record listened to with such incessance Its needle scratches and wobbles Becomes desperate new notes for the melody? The song unrecognizable to the listener Without its own personalized warp From a thousand roundabout journeys? Try Hurrah For The Riff Raff’s Good Time Blues (An Outlaw’s Lament) Or their Ogallala Try on Steve Earle’s Last Words Or...

Orchard with Cypresses A painting By Vincent Van Gogh
In sunlit fields where olive trees grow, Vincent wandered, mind aglow. The blue of skies, a restless sea, Matched the turmoil he longed to free. The cypresses stood tall and proud, Dark green fingers, reaching the cloud. They whispered secrets to the breeze, Of madness, pain, and transient peace. Golden hues of wheat did dance, In the light’s eternal trance. A vivid orange, a burning...

Premium Member Sunflowers Vincent Van Gogh
It's pure excitement, on the edge To know what I have, what I do - is admired Creating from insight into pigment Repeating, surrounding myself, you My friend This is all, it is I'm bold, emblazon myself Watched over they go through it all In bud or to seed embodying beauty Head held high or slumped - it is there We're all triptychs or frieze Stages...
