Description
Ultimately, these verses are reflections of paintings (not necessarily paintings made with brush and oil, but paintings created by Nature, memory, and so forth). Each poem is also a painting and each painting is also a poem in the sense that the poetry should work the way a painting does by presenting a vivid image and idea. In every case, one has stemmed from the other. I want to translate the visual arts into writing, which includes the visual art of imagination because images are my natural language. These verses are an attempt at intermixing the categories (language and image), transferring one category into the other and vise versa to make the language act as a painting would; a painting with occasional narration.
