Alone now,
Moving forward.
Starting Fresh,
Again.
A new white canvas-
Correction;
An old canvas
Frequently repainted,
White.
Coats upon coats
Covering layers upon layers
Upon lives.
Never truly white anymore
Just a shady tone of current position
Codename: Late thirties-
Many lives lived.
I’ve been Modern,
Classic, Romantic.
I’ve been impressioned upon,
Drowned in Blues
And mixed in Surrealist situations.
So I begin again by being corrected-
Not a new canvas at all-
Just another layer of the self
Shifting into focus.
