Dream Time. (2nd. Revision). Poem and Pictures.


 






Dream Time.


Sleeping alone these autumn nights
I snuggle up in my house of dreams,
My private alternative universe
Smaller than a mausoleum -
Larger than a womb of stars
Drifting deep in Andromeda,

This is where I am truly free,
Out of sight and out of mind.

Trevor John Karsavin Potter,
October 19th. - 23rd. 2022.

Zen Lake / Zen Swan. 1 Poem & 2 Paintings. (Revised and Completed).



Painting without planning every detail, 
Just letting the brush move over surfaces
Of untreated wood or clean white paper:
Following the grain of the rough cut wood,
Gliding over the smoothness of the paper
Until images form of their own accord,
Shaped by a sensitivity to the moment
And materials that come to hand.
Without planning I know when the work is finished,
Like the chord in a symphony that resolves all tensions, 
Or the shadow of a frayed leaf caught in a stream
That is slowly ebbing away.                            

Trevor John Karsavin Potter.
