just like some sounds, tastes, smells, sights and feelings of course, there are also some shapes that make one go aahhh .. your super little 575 in combination with your fine symbolic sketch are two such good examples .. Neville

Mystical listening in your wonderful art-work signifies music is magically alluring the mood of the image. Great stuff Michael.

Music is a stimulant: Energizing the nervous system, exciting the brain, raising the oxygen level, bringing reactions of many kinds to our minds and bodies.What a great drawing. Did you do all that without lifting the pen? - Phil A.

in this suffocating heatwave we are experiencing (UK), rain with a side of jazz music is a sobering mirage (from your comment reply to Andy),
love the lines in your picture

the layers here...!
so witty and full of diamond sharp sarcasm,
as genuinely British (a poem) as the all day breakfast sign in the pic,
btw don\'t forget that essential \'tonic\'...
another of your works that made me lol

Good write and pic M. lol.
My poem is \'Save gin; add more water!\' In my role here as the phantom tipple-waterer! They will shoot me for it. lol
But what a cad, a bounder - on a show a business person approved an idea just cos she liked gin!

A porky young man from Tobago
wrote poetry to make the day go
but when evening came
it was all children\'s games
for they stuffed him quite full with their play-doh

Just as I clicked to read this I was perusing Emerson\'s \"Threnody.\"
I shall not presume to compare the two. (His contained no artwork.) I must say though, that the wordplay in yours is brilliant. Your artwork is most stimulating. And if a lament contains the flow of wordsmanship
displayed here, then start wailing. - Phil A.

Glad you finished playing with words and posted this gem of a free-style, semi-abstract piece of intriguing perspective on frustration. Great read Michael.

L. B. Mek said:

I think you captured that subtle state of introspection, spontaneous and entirely without objective at its outset - but somehow, yielding concrete breakthroughs to niggling obstacles,
only, the mere feat of discovering this untameable skill renders us momentarily stunned - in that crucial moment where we should be at our most alert: so as to record and cherish those inspirational thoughts or ideas,
later - once removed from that rainbow mirage of temporary enlightenment: we question, if we truly experienced what we think we did and are left frustrated for not taking full opportunity of such a rare gift,
and thus we resume that chorus of lament - we pace our daily strides to...
(or you were just writing in a broody mood, lol)
brilliant write! evocative with insightful depth
(sorry for lengthy comment, I get excited when reading such thought provoking work)

ANGELA HERE - Good MITWOK Uncle Mike - Thanks for an enigmatic Pic *n Poem - but as they say on Classic FM there is paradoxically a LINK ! We*ve been to ALASKA (Cruise) to see the Whales and the *not so Abstract* is a Whale just breaking the Surface in the Alaskan Waters ~ OK !
Well wheres the LINK ? Well a THRENODY is NOT a *Trio of Gnomes* ~ GOD FORBID ! - but a WAIL or LAMENT - Which it certainly is !
So there we have it - enigma solved - Your presentation is ~

A WAIL accmpanied by a Picture of a WHALE
Two for the price of ONE ~ Boris* offer for WEDNESDAY !
Seeing we solved your enigma can you please add a Poem
on WALES to our *Staycation Fusion* and also check ~
*Love of the Horse* todays POEM ~ Thanks A & B !


Blessings & Peace & Love to You & Yours

of a life: without biting substance...
another quirky offering, your work offers such effortless whimsy - of well-lived, shimmering silver wisdom: displayed with deftly subtle tones
