I see words that flow into my being
caught in the beauty of images before me
positive and negative
like magnets as a child, repel and attract
a thousand bits of fragmented metal
creating an image with an invisible force.
I find it all important in the big picture
as dreams take me into strange realms I’ve known,
places I feel I’ve been before
reliving moments perhaps from centuries gone
returning round to end back at the start,
with a strange and pleasant catch in my heart
I know that I am where I need to be,
everywhere and nowhere
depending on the moods of the sun and sky
feeling alive in the spaces
connected to the dots
picture formed complete
frame to make it art
or shred into pieces to blow on the wild wind
it’s always free no matter where,
the ashes of the stars fall upon me
and I am anointed with positivity.
Inspired by the following words: Negative space…I wondered why it couldn’t be positive space or both? I like positive…things to ponder in my mind….
“Negative space, in art, is the space around and between the subject(s) of an image. Negative space may be most evident when the space around a subject, not the subject itself, forms an interesting or artistically relevant shape, and such space occasionally is used to artistic effect as the “real” subject of an image.”
