Packaged Goods, by Deborah Guzzi

Small Rebus, by Robert Rauschenberg (USA), 1956.

Packaged Goods


A time of                     Rorschach’s
fullness                        splotches
ribbons                        manta rays
bows blow                   stream of blue
candied eggs               nine tailed cats
in baskets                    dripping dashes
   
                        flaws rule
                        skinned knees
                        parchment play
                        hobby horses
                        holiday  
                        in patches                


blown ink guises                     no mistakes
circus dreams                          crazy quilts
endless time                            hand-less clock
lambs & lions                         innocence
roles Crayolaed                       without
by caches                                lashes
