anxiety
fits like
a scarf
of fine silk

wrapped
too tight
around my neck
two sides of a picture

Spark
a rebellion
among the sheep.

Watch them burn out,
go back to sleep.

birdsong
in cerulean sky
ceiling

green verdant grass
beneath us
lying lazily
in love

seven pennies
fourteen dimes
two friends visit
candy shop

sweet smiles
sharing
candy bar
I don't know if $1.47 would buy a candy bar big enough to share, but wanted to try this form with 7 for number of lines, 14 for number of words, two for the break into two parts. Not sure it fits the part about creating pictures. (Thanks, Apricot, for introducing the form :-)

Imagine –
going to bed;
falling asleep
instantly.

You wake,
fresh,
from a dreamless night.

Gracefully,
my paintbrush
moves from here
   to the
           stars.

Galaxies explode,
and recreate art.
The Septolet is a poem consisting of seven lines containing fourteen words with a break in between the two parts. Both parts deal with the same thought and create a picture.
