#1703 - horses of different colours

horses of different colours

peasant idyll

ekphrastic for Kandinsky’s 1908-9 ‘Blue Mountain’

in the Guggenheim

 

from world to mind

the mountain lit

 

sun cast as to eye

 

they are from deep

a carousel prance up motley

 

magic, one takes tail

 

one thing could be another

and must

 

the cloud for a river told

 

no face

but defy geometry

 

we are made from these strokes

 

the tree is all the colours there are

 

bright to be with

the very place

 

it’s from colour we come to be

 

there is no other day
