artwork

one of the cornerstones of art is romance - if not more...

Write on me - I’m a blank page,
here to meet expectations.
Scribble, erase - copy and paste,
refine me with your impatience.

I’m a canvas for you to paint on
make of me what you will.
Make of me art - I’m ready to start,
paint me into a corner.

Showcase me in your gallery -
display what you've acquired.
I'm a mannequin for undressing -
arrange me with your desire.

Put me in your drama
I'm longing for the part
improvise, I'll close my eyes
the climax will be art.

[T.S. Ulmus]

So many artists and writers have described the crippling fear of blank pages, it's so interesting to see a poem describing a romance from said page. That was my first take, but it also reads as an insecure lover willing to be crafted by another. If it was your intention to offer up this duality of romance and sadness then you are a brilliant wordsmith. Even if I'm reading too much into it, you've created a great poem here.
