Venus, Decorated

Venus, Decorated

            a

Goddess

is ever so slightly

spun away from observers

reclining across a sultry bed

adorned w/ a silky overspread

gingery, upward sweeping strokes

define the curvy contours of her body

bowed out at the hip, in at the stomach

& out again at her soft willowy shoulder

her

body dictates

the gilded frame

the

masterpieces’ limits

commence at her slender foot

& conclude w/ her elegant elbow

            a

Goddess

            decorated

            for your pleasure

This little writing exercise from my bud was to create a work of art with words. Couldn't have come at a better time.

Did I succeed?

In propinquity,
