a painting requires an audience
witnesses to testify to its beauty
eyes to be filled with its wonder.
even though they change nothing.
the paint dried long ago and
the characters are set in their ways and
the joy that flows from the canvas
can never be returned to its sender.
wide mouths and gaping eyes absorb
but leave no mark of change, nothing
good or bad or ugly or beautiful,
nothing.
