Sexy Pablo

lol going back in detail
to some previous discussion
we finally conclude
art dealers made a decision of a century
of a century man at the age of 2012
to sex up Picasso's headlines
for Antonio man
Antonio's going to be
a sexy Pablo
guess for the girls
who think on Monday only? ? ? ?
I think the graveyards
are dying from laughter
suffering from death

Paint The Town Redneck

(richard fagan/steve obrien)
All week long I been workin that nine to five
Dreamin in color but livin in black and white
Monday to friday aint nothing but shades of gray
But tonight Im gonna party
All my blue collar blues away
Im a paint the town redneck when I get my paycheck
You ought to see my chevy van go
Headin for the bright lights, Ill be painting all night
Im a honky tonkin michelangelo
Picasso with a pool stick
Too loose with a two step
Rollin till my greens all gone
Im a paint the town redneck
Honey wanna come along
We can get there early
And draw us a pitcher of beer
Do a little dancin and make the blues disappear
Brushin up against each other in the neon light
You can be my mona lisa and Ill make you smile tonight

Depicted Horrific Events

In the movie about
'Picasso's Guernica Painting
Under Microscope'

did you guess
where I was
in the sketches?

What part I played
in depicted horrific events
during the painting?

The enormity
significance of my
symbolic part?

You guessed?
YES no...
when I took flight?

Evening Date.

Hi come in I've just put on
the Mahler the 3rd Ok? she says
and before you can reply she

ushers you into the lounge where
you remove your coat and hear
the Mahlerian sounds from the hifi

and the smell of her scent and two
glasses of scotch on the small table
by the sofa take a seat she says taking

your coat off to the other room and
you look at the Picasso print on the
wall and think how long before she

tries to undress you and you sit and
she's back and sits beside you and says
drink up and take in the Mahler and

My Cat

Cool cat
Good cat
Pussy cat

When I see him walking
Makes no sense to me
My cat is everywhere
We watch him on TV

My cat is amazing
He can play the guitar
He may not be an actor
But he's a pussy superstar

My cat
Cool cat

My cat is everywhere
Sees what he can see
He may not be an actor

Love Her Beauty

How I love her beauty,
When I knew of such existence,
I searched for ever for her beauty,
Her existence lead me to another
World, another life, when I look up
At the stars the spirit of Picasso
Creates the vision of her beauty
Among the stars, I yearn to look
Upon her beauty for a blink of an
Eye is Hundreds of years, eternity
Between heart beats, a thousand
Sunsets and a thousand full moons
Pass and my search is forever.

Soprano of Sonnets

Have you ever been a figure skater on paper?
A musician of flowing ink?
Have you ever been a conductor of words?
Or a Picasso of rhyming?
Have you ever captured the beauty of a syllable?
Ever used words to paint meaning?
Have you ever made a verse dance off the paper?
A couplet sing to me?
Has your poem ever really hit someone?
Ever stopped their heart for a moment?
Or took their breath away?
If so, you are a great poet.

A Lightweight Ode to Ars

A Lightweight Ode to Ars
or A Not So Fauve Muse

Fernand Leger watching me
Bloats my limbs
But when Salvador Dali comes

He makes my edges flow.
And if Pablo Picasso shows up
My face looks

Like it hit the fan.
Of them all I adore most
Marcel Duchamp’s tongue.

He says I taste like
A cubed sashimi roll from
A fauve Rousseau beast.

A the roaring sound

Crimson sun shirt
Azure sky baggy beau
Watch assassinating time
Rose of light dimming out.

Liquid diamond love
Dropping out,
Bunking out,
Melting out betwixt
Tapered balletic fingers
Silhouette fading
At distant stoic sky
Kissing hazy-fuzzy horizon.

Entirety limning off

Fragment of a fallen star!

Middle of the night
When a star burns in the sky
A street child not sleep yet
with the infested scabies
And he counts slowly
One, two, three and four etc.,
Gazing at the far away building
He thinks deeply!
When he enrolls that College
To count all the stars quickly
And do they ask my runaway parents immediately?

*To Mr.M.F.Hussain (1915-2011) Picasso of India who passed away on 9th, Thursday, June in a London Hospital.He was 95 and may his soul be a painting in the sky!

Inside Your Great Self....

all she had to do was
write about a leaf, or a bird perching
one rainy upon a grain
of wheat,

voila! she is great
just like the way Picasso uses only two lines
to draw a breast of a feeding woman

how foolish can you be
searching for the golden ant with silver wings
trying to please them
with it

all toil, suffering yourself like
a Sisyphus,
you are still nothing
trying hard, copycat

forget about it, junk them

0282 A Necessary Art

There's art history, and there's the history of art.
Art history, you can learn anywhere these days;
the history of art's some other, thrilling thing, a life-blood
pumping its heart intensely as if it were a matter
which it is of course, of life and death..

and who will tell you, except those who lived it through,
who will tell you - except perhaps old men;
while the students yawn, stop taking notes,
and wonder if the chick back there
is up for it?

Who will tell you that the truth is savage,
and the world hard earned,
and art, painting, poetry,
a matter of life and death?

Who will tell you, for instance, how after 1945,
when war ended, and 'peace'
was the threat of nuclear annihilation,

Unburdened.

It's not the sort of house
You'd want to go to again,
Mildred said, the smell hits
You first, the kind of smell
That climbed in your nose
And didn't leave for days.

She sipped her wine and
Sat down on the couch,
Carefully holding the glass
With her other ringed hand.

There was an unhappy
Feel About the place as
You entered in, a feel
Of neglect. She looked
At the black and white
Mat under the coffee
Table, at the books lying
There: Fashion books, art,

09. A Woman Waits For Me

a woman waits for me
to angle me in such a position
it clears the brain, mind
from blotches, obstructions
oiling them for prime functions
flight between the planets
decipher the lines of einstein, plato,
picasso, van gogh
i find the extra mental sphere for poem
between the seams of her wear
delicate corners, curves
that set the brain
on a different dimension
your voice, your hair, legs, bossom
a design to spearhead me
a rocket waiting to be launched
by your softness, scent, voice, gestures
my crystalised selves that come in jets and spurts

Picasso Anti-War Pigment Symbols

Pablo Picasso moments
painted Spanish Civil War screams
Guernica shows tragedies

war sown suffering festering war inflicts
upon drift swept caught conflict individuals
consumes pale innocent seed civilians

cubist monumental status
perpetual reminder tragedies
anti-war pigment symbols

black white intolerant party issues
suffering people animals landscapes
buildings wreckage violence chaos

stage rage left fractured wide-eyed bull stands
over a lost woman mother shadow grieving pities
raw ruptured screams dead child in waste arms
