Compositionally Speaking


Not all visions get along.
Sometimes a pretty yellow one
will light up everything
like sunshine in a song –

and it’s just wrong. A sulky blue
behemoth’s getting squeamish:
he’d rather not be seen
in company like that.

(About to be a visionary spat.)
And yet, looked at together –
vying about who will tether whom
into a blooming unity –

the one determinedly beatific,
the other virulently mad –
compositionally speaking,
they don’t look bad.
