A Poem by jacob erin-cilberto

the artist's signature

 

 

little house

still

like a painting of orchids

purplish, whitish

 

skittish when the wind salutes

in rhythmic pose

and yet holding strong

in tapered board

 

the house withstands

the flowers recycle

gardens implode

then rest

 

when frost enters the perimeter

the painting smears.
