a moon float Kandinsky - ekphrastic for Kandinsky’s 1927 ‘Sharp-Quiet’

Kandinsky, Sharp Quiet, Scharf-Ruhig, 1927, Semi-Metallic Gloss, 20" x 20" - Picture 1 of 10 

 

a moon float Kandinsky

ekphrastic for Kandinsky’s 1927 ‘Sharp-Quiet’

 

what is it we see through?

 

where are you in all this?

 

have to lock yourself out of the world

 

dream up the light arrested

 

no one can tell how the orbit is flattened

what spins off

 

how some shapes float

some might land

 

how does a picture relate to time?

 

by virtue of a wish now lost

 

some shine

 

in a tight cell

in our own weather

 

sometimes call daylight

 

it’s as if we are almost

where we all are

 

the colours only if you see

 

defend us by these means
