This BLOG entry is dedicated to The San Diego Museum of Art. I took these photographs of a few of my favorite paintings in the Museum. If you haven't visited lately, go soon.
Sin Titulo by Yves TanguyAFTER A VISIT TO THE SAN DIEGO MUSEUM OF ART... I WROTE:
FOR NEVER WAS A STORY OF MORE WOE
Mad blood boiling,
the boy was in love.
Shakespeare knew but Romeo didn’t
that a romp in the woods
with boys would have been safer.
The Nile floods, engorges,
inflames, incites.
Pluto frowns coldly, old.
Mars and Pleiades tease.
Taurus blusters.
Aires waits.
The Moon is down.
And they told me when I was young
every toadstool has an elf under it.
