#1481 - deluge


 



1481

5.20

20.i.24

deluge

ekphrastic for Kandinsky’s 1913 ‘Landscape with Rain’

 

all of it is falling

 

something stood like spears

to make appearance random

 

it’s the rain dissolves

 

village river bright

overbanking

 

a sudden colour tide

there’s afternoon of it

 

rain makes illegible

 

house reduced to float

 

who’ll find the lost sun?

 

a sky breaks into falling

wherever the eye would climb

 

strokes of the rain

 

shapes take

 

who’s to catch?

 

it must not mean

it does

 

all of this is smoke
