yes, the eye acts in dynamics of seeing standing, but interpreted upside-down, the eye says up is down, and down is up... but the world and the body in it say: left is right, and right is left. the painter begins adding colours to a blank canvas, in terms of uncoupling poets from philosophers, mindlessly termed akin and useless in the philosophers' republic, the painter works with a lack of colour, white, or all colours and thus deciphers the canvas with his own unique rainbow... so if you were to choose a canvas for a poet? i'd choose a mirror, mirrors are canvases for poets, because poets hardly see themselves, when people protest and ask the poet: do you see yourself? the poet retorts, i'm not good in third person narratives, you see yourself? oh you mean encapsulate a perfected humanity, synchronise body with soul and eclipse the mind? nah, i prefer noting that if poets are not akin to philosophers because the philosophers ****** them and were too excluded from their invention... then if painters paint on white canvases, poets speak against the canvas of frozen quicksilver.
