#1259 - lo and behold

 



 

1259

lo and behold

ephrastic for Anna Margit’s 1953 ‘Lángvédő

Pécs ekphrastic

 

each a curiosity

 

pyjamas leak into my head

once geometric

hard to balance

now I’m only a couple of eggs

floral border

an eye each colour

lips too small to say

a kind of tea cup prosthesis

ear to a world pouring in

but tenderly to flame

 

imagine coming across my apparition

 

no justice in wallpaper

the world is torn in halves

 

there’s much yae verily here

so sacred keep this flame

 

a stillness facing

but dizzy still

 

most days to spin like a top
