Awares

[elazar]

as i dust off my brushes
unfurl worn canvas
feeling old and new
and critical

years of discontent
a lifetime
unawares
now i want to show up

mindless
i was mindless
shut off from reality
living alone in my head

this paint stares at me
reproachful
having been used
haphazardly

ive learned another way
correction am learning
i can live
finally

salut
elazar

Salut Elazar,

A good image.

This sounds like an awakening,
I wonder what colours the painter will choose.
