Loneliness
Beyond the bar, one line short of music,
Beyond the crosses, one line long of
tic-tac-toe,
Beyond the boxy squiggle snaking,
the Rubik’s cubist making,
the jaw wand gaping, and Picasso Pac men
thrash-squabbling a second unsolved not-quite
Rubik,
Beyond the then beyond, multi-personal sunshine,
Beyond the Yellow-Red-Blue
Behind the whole Wassily Kandinsky, pacing in
its frame-cage,
Behind the frame-cage,
Behind the beige, royal stamps on the
off-white wallpaper,
Behind the headaching orange paint it covered,
stood plain gray drywall, friendless, alone.
