Painted Words


 

Canvas
Paint
Words.
Canvas
Paint
More words.
Like paint
Like Picasso's Work
On canvas
Is the art work of words
Painted
By the poet's
Words.
Pretty pictures
Pretty words flowing from the vains
Like drawing blood
Withdrawing suddenly those words.
Breathing words extracting
Words
From the very soul
Words.
Pretty painted pictures
Withdrawn
Words.
