She Spoke

She spoke it in a line
And
A
Random mind awoke
And
Walked
She drew it with her heart
And
Then
Eyes followed lines
‘Mine!’

A mouth pulled them apart
And
So
They spread in disarray
Be
A
Beautiful thought
It lay
Near
Me
She drew it with her heart
Over and under and through
Me
The light we could see.
‘Here!’
A mouth pulled it apart.
‘No!’
And
Random mind awoke
The moon
And
UnPreDicTaBiLiTy
Drew it the way she knew
As she smiled with me

By Maria Grujicic
Artist name, Malena

This is a poem that describes a love for the subject that one draws, of which I feel is required for the art work to be authentic and ‘real’. One needs to simply feel.

I find that as a poet it is important to me that I explore a variety of other art forms even though I am not expert at them. This is because I need to have perspective on the world around me and express these in different ways to bring out the inspiration in me.

I feel that creativity is holistic, like a picture and without other art forms my poems lack that special something. Venturing into something new is like nutrition for my poems. Disarray, it may seem though when it all comes together it forms that picture I have in my mind.

The rhythm to this poem is in my head as I recite it. I hope that this is clear as my audience reads it. I will do up an audio soon.

Comments are welcome. And as always, thank you for visiting.
