Jackson Pollock
Jackson Pollock

Primary colour dribbled from the lip
the tin tipped and dripping
red yellow green blue struggling
their random patterns painted pooling
plastic paths pirouetting pastiche
of explosive performance entwined
one within the other and a thousand more
wriggling in random writhing riot
confused and silent cacophony
and chaos of accident intended.

This mass of shape and line
coloured fresh and free
is wild and even beautiful
a design of energy and verve
but art gagged and voiceless
wall hanging without a cause.

For Promptly Poetry Challenge, Week 13 2024
Prompt: Quiet chaos.
