How the creative life is entwined with an inner war
Painting whores hung upon easels by paper crowns.

Declining destinies laying in cold baths

With pre-packed souls in underwater towns.

Soldiers with fingers dipped into red rising storms

Searching for gutted portraits seen only in mind stretch.

Naked tornadoes. Windless. Idly poised paintbrushes

Twenty stretched digits. Locked. Entirely white. Entirely dark.
