For Clancy, a Great Comet Painting
Acrylic painting on wood board
i would name a painting for you
so i will not forget
the sorrow and the joy
of your comet
it takes good
it takes bad
it takes both black and white
to make up all of what we are
whether wrong or right
if i name a painting for you
painted colors, shape and line
shape and line
belong to everyone
but the colors are all mine
i can name a color for you
that would be more true
a great comet painting
mango orange and Clancy Blue
