Exhibits
Take me to art exhibitions
Not just the museums of empty
spaces made alive with
paintings of artists long gone,
No,
take me to gesture drawings
coming to life on stage,
take me to a waterside with the
night falling in so that I can
witness time romantically.
Take me to Van Gogh’s sections
so that I can recognize his
brush strokes as the way
I ice the cakes I bake.
Take me to a street that gives
you good feelings of nostalgia,
Remove the chlorine out of the pools of your mind
so that when I take a dip in it
you feel the infection
of our mental connection.
Take me to art exhibitions
of people creating rhythms in
foreign conversation
out of their body languages.
Take me to a place where we
become hidden behind golden
authentic frames that refuse to be touched.
Let’s allow the audience to admire their
theories of meaning,
and we’ll hold the truth close.
Take me atop city buildings,
so that our egos become a bit
inflated as we watch our bit of seconds
coated in superiority,
all because we watched the city
lights never turn off.
Let me paint you a picture of
the art in everything.
