Paintings Framed in Half-Light
Visions pour in. No mercy from my mind tonight. I stand in a glade and imagine it drowning in sights unreal. Grass melts. Rocks swirl into twisted faces. Leaves turn to liquid and drip down branches, bleeding into pools. The moon is a closed eye. Brush in hand, my ethereal palette emerges. Memories resurface. I repaint, relive... A man burned before me in his own armory. Around us sweltered a painted fire with flames the color of daybreak. Its golden core beat with pain—with every wound his weapons had ever inflicted.
