1. Starry Night with Glass Marbles.

Details of Starry Night with Glass Marbles

Marbles I gathered from empty wine bottles

     that regulate serving;

I made them resemble stars in the night sky,

     but turned into a sober scene.

Van Gogh painted the night sky in quiet glory,

     while man searches for peace;

how poor is my art to see the stars in harmony

     far, far from a masterpiece.

"Great art picks up where nature ends" — Marc Chagall.

2. Palm Sunday - the Day After

"Isn't livelihood worth billions lost a crime'

more so, of man repeating his own Fall?" - avr

"They always say time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself" — Andy Warhol.

Lent paves the way to a weeklong Passion,

with palm leaves waving wildly in the air;

to the faithful, call it a rally, an obligation,

in expense of Nature's loss of her care.

Just one occasion erases gain in a lifetime;

palm trees - coconut, date, buri, et al.

Isn't livelihood worth billions lost a crime;

more so, of man repeating his own Fall?

"Transformative art must express something beyond where you are, it demands that you grow beyond your current self" — Alex Grey ~
