February 7 -- Thomas Thomas

Paul Klee Cat and Bird

bird nests
above the cat's eye
free in danger

-----

Piet Mondrian White Rose in a Glass

rose drinking its last
draught of life - bathed within
severe orange fire

-----

Frederic Edwin Church The iceberg

tiny ship towered
over by small iceberg
in little ocean

insignificant planet
speck of solar system

-----

Edgar Degas Laundry Girls Ironing

to cloud the pain
hasten the rush to death
escape life

-----

Pablo Picasso Le Vieux Roi

power distorts
turns beauty - satisfaction
unobtainable

-----

Georges Seurat Angelica at the rock (After ingres)

in this shame
eternity dressed
with your wealth

-----

Blake's prints on Milton's Paradise Lost

Satan watches
Adam and Eve adoring embrace
Jealous of love
