STAINLESS STEEL TREES
I am cool, polished marble
i lie under stainless steel trees
around a lush green velvet lawn
Chameleons change to survive
changing to survive
too many destroying flesh
killing flesh
burning skin
and flesh
and bone
and hair
Change to survive
no more skin
no more flesh
no mare bone
So muuch killing
means nothing will ever
be the same
Change to survive
want to stay alive
like a chameleon
like a Rodin like a Henry Moore like a Michelangelo
I am cool, polished marble
smooth to the touch
frozen to the ends of time
with my stainless steel trees
Painting - The Big Game by Bernard Buffet.
