Piet Mondrian

[JTParreira]

The lines produce
the simple things
the world
Its lines are not
delineating anything
known out
of the world
simple things
as if they had
not been before
the complex metaphor
for the encounters: trees,
houses, fields
connections, that have never
had a name.

[JTParreira]

First, the depths of her eyes
let the night in. Then the body
turns the corners as if passing through walls
of crystal, the hair trembles
on the shoulders, the lips
smile behind a crimson
flower, the legs climb steeply
from the high heels;
finally, the breasts that shield
the cold against itself
let go of the world that always falls to her feet:
the stockings, the intimate
rose,
the dress.

Quite extraordinary! It reminded me, but only by the merest tangent, of a song called "Je suis comme je suis..."

The poem is simple and says everything in a few short lines. I loved the imagery and simplicity :) kizzo

the hand slides(on to things of love
the same hand that dries tears)and
makes silence explode
the hand(that invents new rhythms
or guides the child up to his house)squeezes
another hand.
