Being an artist means ceasing to take seriously that very serious person we are when we are not an artist. Jose Ortega y Gasset

The beach recognized for the crash















The beach recognized for
the crash



which piled into its
solace







The solace rooted in hiss
and tongues



The beach imagined of
windows







where horsemen hail each
other



I the drapery







flowing among blue walls



the drapery imagined of
windows







where acrobats are
brought to stand



Aren't I in it this time







The beach swells becore



another drapery







brings its roots



Yes, that's how it's
recognized







Haven't the feet washed
in



stretching the eyes under
the grass







When do I lean into
'drapery'



because someone expired
here







All of them are washing
into the nebula















All of them are needing
to stand



Paul
Baumann
