ON A BLACK PAINTING BY TAMAYO
...................................Black sun
charcoaling crookedly thru a night city sky
...................................and yellow guitar
or lute or mandolin or crooked naked yellow stringed
...................................wooden silent singing
untouched sleeping child
remind me of a game waiting to be played
...................................Black man black woman
black back to massive black back
.........to passive black or is it gray
remind me of a game waiting to be played again
...................................or is it passive or is it only
...................................a game to wake and play
...................................the yellow thing
or I think it is a game to wait to wake
...................................to play
...................................Black man black woman
and the yellow
........or is it the black sun
