Condensed

Time capsules hang high and tall.
Upheld and brood on my wall.
Points of paint induced to meld
All products of my enthrall.

Brought to a myopic bed.
Mental gold turned into lead.
Captured pigments strokes of weld
Dimensions compressed to wed.

Phantom prisoners wrought in draw.
Brushed and held in pigments store.
Soul searched findings caught and held
Gelded here forever more.

Memory's to defeat times call.
Only ghosts can hang a wall.

It got ten degrees colder in here reading this...quite chilling. I feel like I'm being watched now, good work.

Nan,
Like the old saying goes, you'll have to come up and see my paintings some time.
Michael,
Since your so close to the fire now, I guess this poem would seem cold.
Thank you both so much for the responce.

Dsnyder,
I must thank you for your comment. I do turn on the air conditioning once in a while.

Gee, I thought with that title, it was going to be about milk. Was I wrong!
