A Painting
I pick up my brush
Smooth, solid, real
Against my palm
I dip it into
A puddle of red
Audacious, brash
The heart beating
Against my ribcage
Or a ferocious fire
Intent on destruction
I smear a thick line
Across the canvas
Assaulting the clean
White paper
I then realize
The color is not
What I had envisioned
But the paint
Is already dry
