Goodbye, Stella Read, you were a friend.

Yes Stella was wonderful
we once almost met up in Paris when she was there visiting with her family
but the day before she cancelled .....saying she was too nervous

may she now be at peace

silent lotus

the interview


with an eye
to the critical
his notes reflected
that her hair was
unkempt
circles defined
dark eyes
clothing covered
far too much
but she was reading
Pushkin and smiling

a murmur of red
in an otherwise
black & white portrait

patchwork


October’s palette, umber
and cherry

blocks of colour
daubed and contrasted
with saffron or rust

adornments torn
and transformed
into a crackling shroud

leaving bare
the intricacies of
bark and bone
