Canvas
by
Mira Minkova
Just as you recommended:
I took a big canvas, fingers-brushes.
I drew what I was feeling
alive. This picture...
Really? You believe someone will like it?
It's big, enormous
and I don't know when I am going to draw its end -
at a white canvas-life,
with words, with brushes, with fingers
with teeth even I am drawing.
At its center though I will write with some
gentle color Your name.
For nobody to think
that this picture, so crazy, is only mine
or that, he will be able
someday to obtain it. Today
it is yours. When you decide to
hang it someday with the others, dusty
in the gallery, there it will be still written,
will still stay your mark.
