Picasso
or Miro
won't sell here
Abela
says to me
they're just prints
make us look
a modern
studio
of art work
rather than that
water stuff
you bring in
by local
dumb artists
I tell her
but they sell
she replies
overpriced
under skilled
darn art work
I utter
it's what sells
people like things
that they know
country scenes
river scenes
they like them
besides that
I'm the art
manager
of this shop
she replies
she goes off
to serve some
customer
who's come in
recalling
that evening
after work
when the shop
had been closed
money banked
and we went
to some bar
drank and ate
then went back
to her place
and made love
until late
and above
her soft bed
a large print
of Van Gogh
looking down
by one's head
with that look
that he had
with those eyes
searching deep
sex was good
but that is
a story
that will keep.
