I find you disconcerting.
Your asymmetry
contradicts my desire for balance.
Your blue perspective
curbs my deluded optimism.
Somehow we work —
an abstract painting
converged at the center.

Jen, I really like how your poem feels just like the painting it describes — “an abstract painting / converged at the center” ties it all together in such a cool way!

Jennifer, I love your abstract image so reflective of the O’Keefe painting, and these lines
‘Your asymmetry
contradicts my desire for balance.’ – just magical 🙌
