1960-R

An ode of some sort

 

If there were two of me and I stood

upon myself, I still couldn't reach the top.

If I rolled over and over again, three times,

I'd just make it to the edge.

 

I'm way more colorful than you,

(and I check the "white" box).

 

You're mostly black, and the blotch of red

is such an eyesore. The beige is well...beige,

and that white line is a postscript.

 

Ties the whole piece together

Mr. Still thought, when he finished you.

 

Craning my neck, I stand looking

at you. Alone in a room, I can hear soft

echoing murmurs, *What does it mean?

What does it mean?*

 

You don't make sense. From top

to bottom, left to right. A displayed plane

of utter confusion.

 

Someone thinks you're beautiful.
