#705 - Matisse blue

Matisse blue

 

is the bather dancing

the sky in the soul in the sea


is memory cut from air at thinnest

 

that blue is storm of bruise

sulphur wing of a mothrise

 

none of these things so

but I say

 

worried notes are

sevenths, flattened fifths

blue naked light

 

whales’ breath

deep in the dive  

 

voluptuous the bedside blue

beside which nothing’s white

 

nor is it ever for us to see

far blue of the dot that we’re on
