I take the passenger's seat as we drive
tickling the wind as we soar with wheel-wings and
diamond
rings
salted tomato slices on your seaside dock
That's just my art you brush away
the back of your hand, bruised, cracked, beaten
and every orange and pink you've eaten is just another dip of the brush

another crack in the frame

another tap on the glass

Like heavy feet on thin ice or
thumb cuts in the dark morning
And say that morning was new when all its elements still ache
But when I paint we're air on the moon
in our truck, salty breezes on our cheeks
freshly rosed and flushed and kissed, with our apples
and oranges and bags and bags of plastic cups
and juice
and crackers
and we're young again.
It's just my fingerpainting. Your sad, sad love is just another fire cloud
in a sky with no sound.

Welcome Aurora Rain ~
Your work is tense and somber
==========
That's just my art you brush away
the back of your hand, bruised, cracked, beaten ...
==========
It's just my fingerpainting. Your sad, sad love is just another fire cloud
in a sky with no sound
==========
Let your rain cleanse and heal.  Your art is good.



Live for love. Without love, you don't live.
