A poem about a painting by Odil Redon.

REDON THE MYSTIC BOAT

gold sail
mysterious
blue boat darkened within
passengers side by side contemplate
sea grass

dawn breaks
on the right hand
evening falls on the left
passengers side by side contemplate
the now

voyage
constant motion
time passes; life drains away
passengers side by side contemplate
transience

the sail
is still, no breeze
ripples the sturdy square
passengers side by side contemplate
being
