Words, or Art, or What?

Such canvas collects gestures, of fingers fusing text to image, and image to text

We read this in ways we can't imagine, turning heads for eyeing swoops, dots and staggered lines

as undetermined possibilities that not even the artist knows for sure whether

Begin at the edges and fold your way in, finding center (along dotted line) before folding the long way out (along creased line) so that wings and beaks and message collide at corners' ending

Chewing on words

a poem's rough edges cuts the tongue, barbed irony abounds, jagged with reminders to go slow or pay the price

Breaking the frame becomes you — the slight angle in which your eyes remember the point of view

Breaking the frame releases, too — the quiet pause in which your mind remembers the point of you

So much of us remains forever hidden - the super of man the wonder of woman - until the time we find we are needed, the moments when we pull from inside something to believe in
