Self & Other

blue becomes line
red becomes line
black becomes the eye

the brush becomes a hand
the hand becomes a mind
the mind stops the heart
the heart cracks a window
the window

shuts-

the light from within
goes dark

becomes a mirror

reflections staring at me
becoming you

only the eye becomes
and stays
an eye

only the eye leads
and pushes
to another eye

blue
dab green
trace silver

mix with fingers
of falling
leaves

eyes

line red
slant upwards

climb

become a cheek
slide

slowly, slowly

1 cheek
2 cheek

a forehead
now a mouth

mouth whispers teeth

brows
auburn
green

water for the brushes
again

chin,
a blue diamond

orange

splotch of red

eyes are always eyes

yours mine yours mine yours mine

becoming now
no one.
