Eight-line Poems 2

Meddle

Meddle

The drawing approaches completion
the writhing lines twisting, doubling,
climbing upon each other, and layered,
a complexity of dark and light and there,
it’s done. But wait,an empty area,
an open space, another line, it
needs a little more, a final tweak…

and Blast! It’s ruined.
