A Man in the Sun (art on the 45)

October 19, 2015

A man in the sun. A man without any one. A man with a prayer— untucked shirt tales in hand. He can’t really understand.

A man in the corner*— setting  sun reflects off the wall so warm. The chord of C echos by. Minor chords can make one cry. He is all right— All ok.

Lucky to be where he is. Lucky to be given friends**. The tightening of loose and tattered ends. The past to future begins. He walks back to the corner again.

Tomorrow never knows. The past is all seeing. The floor to ceiling. Broad vistas awakening and contemplating. The man walks into an empty room. He walks through the midday sun. Avoids the gloom and sweeps it all out with a whispy broom. Climbs a ladder over the discontent. A sunny drive. A life less bent.

*(I painted last Friday at Art on the 45 – An Art on the Atlanta BeltLine fundraiser.)
