Art and Place

you
taught
me well
spinsterman
odd marsden hartley
artists blossom and art shimmers
among spruce, lumberjacks, and fishermen under storms
blown down mount katahdin's slopes—you pilgrimed prewar paris and berlin quilting badges
while i sisyphused san francisco and new york learning as we did decades apart
huge ideas swell grand as galaxies but true art
cauldrons to life within the small
our backwater blues
blend real wee
into
true
great
