.             David Hockney

                       By

                 The Poet



     Eiffel's tower was inspired

    by a guitar he saw in a shop

   window, which wasn’t a blues.

  

     His iron work is abbreviated

    with rivets, 1.2 million of them

  and on top, an exclamation mark !



   We can’t all paint David, but we

can temper our words on the same

  anvil, Gustave, must have, used.
