Oak Divinity 1, Scarred, by Linda Rzoska (USA) 2021

Oak Divinity 1, Scarred
     (after Linda Rzoska)
 
                                       The “red-edge:” if our eyes saw in infrared 
                                       the forest would look to be on fire--
Oliver Morton
 
The moon snugged close last night, 
left its glow on this mother tree--
she’s welcomed the rich-red highlights,
revels, this morning, in crimson fillagree
 
that’s seeped deep into bark. She’s draped
her limbs in claret, wrapped scarlet scarves,
rippling and crackling, along the curves 
of her trunk. Her roots must radiate
 
the glow of fiery bricks under my feet.
A red stream to slake the forest’s thirst.
Braided rivulets spread like lightning heat
to nearby trees— the red edge, manifest.

Two Poems After Steve Greer Photographs, by Lisken Van Pelt Dus

​Scale
  
1
The skyscrapers a collection of boulders
piled high, daring us to climb
the crevasses between them,
channels to the sky.
 
2
Like every child ever
growing up in the city, a girl
ahead of me avoids the cracks,
hops from cobble to cobble.
 
3
And you? And I? Pebbles 
strewn at the foot of the buildings, 
tossed again and again, 
scattering as we fall.
 
4
Look closer. Granules
of rock have been swept
into the edges of the day,
uncountable hues.
 
5
The sky between the boulders
is so smooth I could swear 
it is freshly sanded – coarse, 
then fine, then very fine.
 
6
I have been here forever.
Silt is settling on me. 
The city reaches down
as far as it reaches up.
 
7
In the beginning, clay.
In the end, clay.
What will the city build today?
What will it break down?

Ginkgo
 
Who cares about the cubicle
you just left or the screen you will stare at
when you arrive home –
 
wisdom has dropped at your feet,
there on the sidewalk,
each ginkgo leaf a fan, a flower, a fact.

Two Poems on Cupid and Psyche, by F.F. Teague

5/29/2022

Picture
Cupid and Psyche, by Fortunino Matania (Italy) before 1963

Cupid and Psyche

I light a lamp to know the truth
and see... a God! I drop my knife
and gape at all the gold in view,
the gleaming wings. I'm Cupid's wife!
The Pythia had split her lips
with screams of what awaited me:
A Dragon Lover! But your kiss,
your touch, your moves, felt heavenly
until I doubted. You must know,
my sisters urged. I tremble, spill
a drop of wax. You wake and groan
and glare. Your anger holds me still
and silent, shamed, inside our room,
our baby fluttering in my womb.

**

Cupid and Psyche

When Psyche lights a lamp for truth
and sees the God, she drops the knife
and gapes at all the gold in view.
She has one thought: I'm Cupid's wife!

The Pythia's lips had split with screams
of Dragon Lover! But Psyche's fright
had ebbed within her lover's arms;
her lips enjoyed him night by night.

The dark had concealed a golden boy,
as gentle as his mother's doves;
but might, as well, a serpent's coils
and forking tongue have roused to love?

The unborn wriggles in her womb
as Cupid glares across the room.

Monstrous, by Simon Collings

Monstrous

The Pale Blue Knight arrived to a tumultuous welcome. People everywhere were delirious with expectation. Soon the beast which threatened the province would be vanquished and peace restored. The knight’s reward, it was announced, would be the hand of the Governor’s daughter in marriage. ‘May I ask your name?’ asked the Governor, admiring the powder blue suit of armour the knight wore. ‘Cornflower,’ the young man answered. 

Next day the knight set out for the caves where the beast had its lair. Much had been heard of the monster, its ravaging of crops, theft of livestock, the disappearance of a number of peasants foraging in the woods. But arriving at the caves Cornflower found only a placid, red-spotted creature, about the size of a full-grown hog, with large doleful eyes and a slender tail. The animal offered no resistance when the knight tied a rope around its body and led it away. 

‘It’s so pretty,’ declared the Governor’s daughter. ‘Can I keep it as a pet?’ The Governor, who could deny his daughter nothing, acquiesced readily and the animal was taken to the kitchen garden where it was housed in a disused root cellar, the nearest thing they could find to a cave. Its dietary needs were modest, a quantity of hay and a few apples seeming to satisfy it.

But the arrival of the creature troubled the administration. Since the Pale Blue Knight had not killed the beast, as required by his contract, it was unclear whether the marriage should go ahead. Some councillors argued that it should, the spirit of the agreement having been met and the threat, albeit an imaginary one, removed. Their opponents claimed that as no danger had actually existed the contract was legally null and void. 

Cornflower asked the Governor about plans for the wedding and his host blushed, muttered something about ‘minor details needing to be cleared up’, and hurried away. The knight was left to amuse himself as best he could in the Governor’s library.

Meanwhile, the daughter was lavishing attention on her new pet, which she had christened Monstrous. Its sadness perplexed her. Though she pampered the animal, nothing seemed to lift its mood. Knowing of her frequent visits to the creature, Cornflower went himself to the root cellar hoping to engage the girl in conversation. But she was so consumed with worry for the animal she scarcely noticed him. Discouraged, the knight crept back to his books. 

The girl grew melancholy, and the Governor in turn became increasingly despondent. Some councillors began to suspect the creature was not all it seemed. ‘What if the beast allowed itself to be brought here with the intention of plunging everyone into despair?’ one asked. ‘What if Cornflower is in league with the monster?’ another suggested. Some wanted the beast killed, and the knight was proposed as the obvious candidate for executioner. ‘But what about the girl’s health, the risk of her dying of grief?’ several voices demanded. ‘Moreover,’ added another, ‘if Cornflower were to slaughter the favoured pet it’s hard to see how the marriage, even if sanctioned by law, could happily take place.’ 

Word of these discussions soon found its way to the Pale Blue Knight. Before dawn the next day the sound of hooves and the muffled clank of armour were heard, and in the morning Cornflower was nowhere to be found. In time people began to doubt that he had ever existed. Soon no one remembered why they were sad. The hair of the Governor’s daughter turned cornflower blue as she became more and more stricken with sorrow and the Governor’s whiskers and eyebrows took on a similar hue. Members of the Council were so oppressed by gloomy thoughts they could no longer discharge their duties. From the damp confines of its dilapidated root cellar Monstrous gazed sorrowfully out at the world.

Rumi's Ghazal 163

Go friends, fetch our beloved; 
bring me please that fugitive idol!
With sweet songs and golden excuses, 
fetch home the beautiful-faced good moon.
And if he promises that "I will come another time", 
every promise is a trick, he will cheat you.
He has such warm breath, that with magic and enchantments 
he can tie a knot in water and make air solid.
With blessedness and joy, when my beloved appears, 
sit and keep gazing on the miracles of God.
When his glory shines, what is the glory of the beautiful? 
Since his sun-like face kills the lamps.
Go, o lightly-moving heart, to Yemen, to the stealer of my heart;
take my greetings and my service to that jewel without price.
 
Rumi (Persia, 1231)

About Raquel-IA Ekphrastic Art

Raquel-IA started life 10 years ago as a collaborative project between a small Mexico-based collective (with members from México, Israel, United Kingdom and Italy) and The Goodwill Company of Guildford, UK (which provided the general cognition engine at the heart of the system) with the aim of developing a virtual artist able to take in an arbitrary text and return an “artistic” aesthetically-pleasing representation of it… a first stab at ekphrastic art if you will!

This is useful for two main reasons: it helps us understand the brain and human creativity and it helps improve artificial intelligence systems. Rachael-IA uses vocabulary-reduction and a free-association of ideas between what the user writes and ekphrastic descriptions of a knowledge base of artworks; sentence by sentence. Once the visitor asks her to generate an image, she applies her skills about painting in order to produce an original new piece of art, representative of the text provided.

Much remains to be done - such as adding styles, textures, synesthesia and symbolism - and we are particularly keen to find collaborators in the Arts & literary community to help us expand the knowledge base of artworks and also to refine her “artistic skills”.

Poems After John James Audubon, by Colin Morris

5/26/2022

Picture
Carolina Parakeet, by John James Audubon (USA, b. Haiti) 1825-1833

Sighting                 

Seven obsolete forms
intersect

in leaf-work, stretched 
quick 

at barbed fruit. 

Lemon-carmine throats    
tremor, wings pulse

shutter-green. Saturation   
resists the blank 

pull.  

A tree-limb rips open 
the face 

of the page – the paper 
reserves 

press in. 

The lowermost looks 
out (as if to 

fly) to you. 

It’s what’s missing    
prints increase    

in the eye, calls 
for entry.   

Picture
Loggerhead Shrike, by John James Audubon (USA, b.Haiti) 1812

A Part of the Face
J.J. Audubon, 1820

He wished to admit the productions 
of nature. He wished to see life in them 
fresh, their faultless forms. He wished to 
copy them in their own way, alive and 
moving, alighted or on the ground. The 
bird’s very tongue was important to him. 

He laid his dead species on floors, then 
tables and cloth-covered chairs. Neither 
wing, nor leg, nor tail could he place in 
attitudes according to his wishes. An eye 
flashed white when he pushed the lids 
aside with a finger. 

He dreamed he pierced a carcass to fix 
it on his board, passed a wire through the 
mandible to pulley up the head, with finer 
lines affixed the feet, outlined, coloured and 
finished the likeness without thought 
or hunger. A part of the face was injured 
by a drop of water that dried where it 
fell. He applied soft cork to restore the 
desired effect, but the shadowy fissure 
remains. Worn opening – ragged blur – 
a limitless limit to sight.

Picture
Puffin, by John James Audubon (USA, b. Haiti) 1833

The Lateness of the Season 
Audubon’s Labrador Expedition

It was so cold that it was painful 
to draw the whole day, yet I drew
a White-winged Crossbill and 
a Puffin. We have had three 
of the latter on board, alive, these 
three days past.  It amuses us to see 
them running about the hold with a 
surprising quickness, watching our 
motions, and especially our eyes.  
​                                       
*

I cannot describe it; all I can say is that 
so strong does the wind blow, and so great its 
influence on our vessel, that her motion will not allow 
me to draw. The rain is driven in sheets which seem scarcely 
to fall on sea or on land; I can hardly call it rain; it is rather a mass 
of water so thick that all objects at any distance are lost to sight, and the waters 
comb up and beat about us as a newly caged bird does against its imprisoning walls. 

*

I am much fatigued and wet to the skin, but 
we found the nest of a Peregrine Falcon on a 
tremendous cliff, with a young one a week old, 
quite white with down. 

The parents flew fiercely at our eyes. 
                        
*

I had three Foolish Guillemots thrown 
overboard alive to observe their actions. 
Two fluttered on top of the water for 
twenty yards or so, then dove, and didn’t 
rise again for fully a hundred yards from 
the ship. The third went in head-
foremost, like a man diving, and swam 
under the surface so smoothly and fast 
that it looked like a fish with wings. 

*

We shot a Ruby-crowned Wren. It sang for a long time 
before it was shot and perched on the tops of the firs, 
removing from one to another as our party came 
close. So strange, so beautiful was the song 
that I pronounced the singer a new type
of Warbler. John shot it. It fell to the 
ground, and John found it and 
brought it to me. I draw this 
musician tomorrow.                           

*

The peculiar cast of the sky, which never seems 
to be certain. 

Butterflies flitting over snow banks.    

*

I tried to finish my drawing. I covered 
my paper to protect it from the rain, with 
the exception of the few inches where 
I wished to work, yet that small space 
was not spared.
                    
*

When missed by the shot, 
the Piping Plover rises almost 
perpendicularly, passing quite
entirely out of sight.

Red Flamingo, by John James Audubon (USA, b. Haiti) 1832

A Flock of Flamingoes
Lucy Bakewell Audubon 

Of what avail to see more 
or less of Florida?  

Mr. Brand declines 
to acknowledge your Eagle 
or my letter. I have no place 
to meet you at. 

Why do you go on 
in vacant precincts?  I am anxious 
to see this excursion ended 
and ourselves once more 
living in ourselves. 

If I could come, I would give you 
myself. 

Your volume calls 
for the birds of America 
yet you enlarge it into 
an endless pursuit.          

Where there are no new 
birds, why remain?    


​
Picture
Fish-Hawk Carrying Weak-Fish, by John James Audubon (USA, b. Haiti) 1838

Taking Care of Surfaces  

The fish-eye gapes 
blind, the bird 
glares bloody shot 
as their mouths 
gasp the same swath 
of white 
in the translucid field 
of the Plate. 

Picture
Kingfisher, by John James Audubon (USA, b. Haiti) 1830s

A Well-Known Object     
Audubon’s Kingfisher

The pleasure of possession lies        
depleted on the ground.  Spare heat                 

dies in my palm.  I pierce the deep   
breast on a board, thread wire 

to raise the rundown head.  A pin 
to the tail sets halcyon aloft

and red and blue blaze from three 
dimensions to two.  I push the lids 

aside – new colours gush the eye 
as if to promise seven days of calm 

and build a nest of fish bones   
that floats on the sea.

Colin Morris was born and raised on the Lancashire coast of England, and lives in south Berkshire County, Massachusetts. 
His poems on Audubon have also appeared in Lily Poetry Review and descant.   ​

Poetry After Magritte, by Jonathan Yungkins

5/25/2022

Picture
La Fenetre Ouverte, by Rene Magritte (Belgium) 1966

La Fenêtre Ouverte
 
Walls or orange and gold flame wherever I turn. Is it Monday or hell?
No, it’s Saturday. The weekend’s too quiet with those ravens 
perched above eye level, below my consciousness. Surrounding trees
do their best to appear nonchalant and evergreen, though their bark
 
is no calmer than the fire’s bite. Nor are they any more reassuring
than the heat sear stretching like elastic or Saran Wrap across my face,
sealing in panic along with the essential juices, but that’s only
if you want a baked potato for a soulmate. White ceramic,
 
too fragile for a tombstone, is still handy at the dinner table.
I ride my dad’s long-deceased red swayback across a field,
nowhere near settled in the saddle and wondering when, not whether
the horse will bolt back toward him, though horses by nature
 
will gallop into a burning barn. The sky’s a falling, carbonized leaf,
surrounded by clouds which could pass as steam and smoke combined,
suggesting firemen are attempting to extinguish my anxiety— which
of course is a lie. Coffee’s putting the fire out just fine. The firemen
 
are a formality which never appear where pine and fir hug shadows,
bathing this meadow in charcoal flannel, which could pass
for cogitation were the cigarettes I never smoke so close at hand.
The day’s due for a scrub with dish soap, like any other used ashtray.

Picture
Time Transfixed, by Rene Magritte (Belgium) 1938

La Durée Poignardée 
 
I sleep in a chair like the seat on the train I ride to visit you
and watch a locomotive half-emerge from inside a fireplace.
The mantel clock keeps ticking as if this is right on schedule,
 
just as trains keep a schedule and lives attempt to imitate it,
 
trying to maintain steam in whatever keeps them running--
if enough of a romantic to have some faith in in steam trains,
not fatalistic enough to think consuming fossil fuels is death,
 
since we die continually, as a mantel clock gently reminds--
 
gently in volume, at least, since a mechanism can be adamant
and think, when we sleep, we are practicing what it preaches,
time a true believer in what it proselytizes by sheer existence.
 
But we have a locomotive moving through a brick fireplace.
 
So do walls have gears and springs or clocks plaster and lath?  
The mirror hanging behind the mantel clock sees none of this.
The fact a mirror sees is irrelevant as it trumpets into a room--
 
both a play on words and the literal pachyderm in its vicinity,
 
making perfect nonsense and thick-skinned in its utter sense,
keeping a schedule like the locomotive it claims to never see.
But that’s plausible deniability pulling into a room on schedule--
 
plausible deniability of time to oil the gearboxes of our trains--
 
a mantel clock’s tick between our ears, a tick inside our chests.
A ticking I would prefer underneath as I try to sleep on a train--
the train rolling toward you, inexorable and I hope on schedule.
Picture
Le Mois de Vendanges, by Rene Magritte (Belgium) 1958

A Flummoxed Present That Seeps into the Past
​
a cadralor in five Magrittes—title after John Ashbery
 
1  Le mois de vendanges
Wall to wall me stands outside.
Do the faces have the same
pain or wonder in the eyes?
Or is it condemnation?
All the black suits and bowlers
and cumulus wallpaper
masquerading as fresh air--
my suffocating blue room.

Picture
Clairvoyance, by Rene Magritte (Belgium) 1936

2  Clairvoyance
What came first, the chicken or
the blame? Egg on a table
or dove flapping on knife’s edge,
fluttering on an easel?
Apprehension unspoken
for fear of smearing oil paint,
leaving a mess of feathers,
blood smears, an abandoned head.

Picture
L'Ombre Monumentale, by Rene Magritte (Belgium) 1932

3  L’hombre monumentale (La demon de la perversite)
It’s as good as Poe’s raven--
robin’s-egg blue nevermore.
Poised to roll along bluegrass,
round and large as a planet.
It’s good as God’s bowling ball,
ready for a perfect strike.
House walls below white as pins.
Clouds grimy as used ashtrays.

Picture
La Belle Captive, by Rene Magritte (Belgium) 1931

4  La belle captive
Morning is pale blue velvet.
Long grass rustles. The dirt road
turns at an oak toward the sea
or ocean blue horizon.
Hooves clop. Wheels on a cart grind.
Birds chirp, intermittent.
Horsecart stops at a house,
sequestered onto canvas.

Picture
Rideaux, boule et personnages, by Rene Magritte (Belgium) 1960

5  Rideaux, boule et personages
Sandwiched between curtains
and a towering ball of blood,
a haze of hemoglobin
wafts like a marine layer.
Even coffee tastes copper
while a jet roars overhead,
seeking whom it may devour,
spectators roaring their joy.

Skull of a Skeleton with Burning Cigarette, by Vincent Van Gogh (Netherlands) 1886

1886
​
Through the dark black holes 
Where my eyes once were 
I see death 
It rests on my teeth 
Letting out smoke 
You tell me that cigarettes will decay me away. 
How can that be? 
when 
I am a skeleton 
Who has already decayed.

Luis Sanchez
