painting the painter #2

painting the painter 2 15 x 20. oil on panel 2011 13


contemplate
calmness of cadavers

though
they
twitch

song serpent sings

serpents sings
harrowingly of horizon

innocence
illusory
scorpion said

grief

extinction
emancipates

continuous
cloud

mist
empire

ended
in fecal fog

embarked

encountered

expelled

flowing

impassable
passage

fields fertile
with Fallen
falling

in falling
turning

turning back
to tribulations

algorithms
of atrocity

from family tree

extermination
eloquent

claustrophobic
in crater

serpent suspects
ecstasy in elimination

history
hole

depth
defined

night
into night

hole
hell

see solution
vital
fluid

blood
bile
black
urine
sweat
phlegm
fluid

flees ferment

in abattoir
shape becomes shadow

shadow
within shadow

valley
to valley

so little distance
as you fall
against ropes

consider
climbing corpses

tremble

tremble

come
close to chasm

horseman
hurling
from heart

other
organs

cover
face in faeces

follow
Fallen
in forgetting

tracing
each other's
tumors

topography
of terror

tremor

trembling becomes
tremor

go
to ghost
in garden

gather
garments

void
vital fluids

predator

scavenger

prey

species of silhouettes
savage

serpent sang
in sacred song

bring
bag
of
bones

viper
volunteers
vision

history
heinous
hideous hallucination

echo living
souls
