| Red Spot II, Wallisy Kandinsky |
Almost complete erasure,
her very essence
almost lost between the layers
he crafts with fine precision.
Complete submission,
she becomes his masterpiece,
his Dorian Gray,
absorbs his unbridled anger.
Her blooded form
drips pigment on his palette,
becomes the red spot on his canvas,
she his unwilling lamb for slaughter.

With thanks to Tess at The Mag for the inspiration and also the good folk at The Poetry Pantry at Poets United.

Remarkably creative take on the prompt...
Oo... bloodthirsty fun...
I've seen women fall into this trap far too many times. Once again, I'm amazed at everyone's different interpretaion of the picture.
great,:) thanks for sharing!:)Very deep and meaningful..:)
nice dorian grey ref...sad for her...you really make us see this...very nice take on the prompt....
Great power to this. Oscar would like the reference.
Artists do have that power of seduction.
Almost erased and almost lost but for that giveaway drop of red blood. Time will bring him to justice. A fascinating story told here.
Unsettling in its truth.

Brilliant!
Oh my...the visual in this is powerful! Great Work!
You bring a new life to the picture - the first line sets the scene.
Ooh, you went eerie with this. I like it. And I love the Dorian Gray reference.
One of my favorites this week ...
What a cover up, He'd have gotten away with it if it weren't for that spilled drop of life.

Thank you for your very welcome comments folks.

Excellent write, Anna. It's almost like "Perfume" but with paint rather than odours...
Wow, a very powerful piece, Anna.
Wonderfully imaginative interpretation of Kandinsky's image.
Superb Anna, but I fear the psychoanalysts might have a field day if they read these Mags ...
best wishes Isabel
Thank you so much for your welcome comments.

I'm here from Isabel's blog, Written in Exile. Although I am not a poet, I am interested in the form and one day I might find courage enough to tackle some rudimentary poetry, but for now I'll stick with prose. It's good to meet you here, Anna, and to resonate with your wonderful words here. That's a powerful image on which you base them. Thanks.
a powerful and interesting take ... kudos.
Hi Anna
The commenters and nastiness that Elisabeth was referring to in detailed on my 'adjunct blog', Living in Exile - there is a link across from Written ...
You are always a welcome visitor, regardless of how frequently you can. We are all pressed for time.

A powerful and alarming poem, with vivid and uncomfortable images.
You have a touch of him yourself? Such brilliance for such darkness!
Eerie call all too often happens in reality. Powerful verse!

Whoa! A poem as startling as the painting itself. Well done.
hmmmm...very dark and somehow my eyes never took me there with this image, but paired with your words... well done!
Thanks for your kind comments folks.
Dave ~ re your question - I have considered this myself. We all have a dark side and I have wondered if mine is darker than most as ‘it’ often bubbles to the surface when writing poetry stuff.
However I have concluded that most of the material is derived from stories related to me in various workplaces by good folk who life has not treated to kindly.
I am certain it is in my nature to be a kind happy soul – for indeed I am – or do I just think I am?

This on Kandinsky's piece? Excellent poetic response. It feels visceral, gritty and very palpable. I appreciate that in poetry and in the discussion of/meditation on artwork. It loses foothold on firm ground all too easily
Thank you for your welcome comment Luke.

Great piece, was as if i was instantly transported into an artist's studio witnessing various emotions playing out.
I enjoy, lead to I found exactly what I was having a look for. You have ended my 4 day long hunt! God Bless you man. Have a great day. Bye
