Imagery
I draw in words what other sketch
With pencils, and my draughtsmanship
Must be as accurate as theirs
To realise my images.
I paint in phrases details which
Others embody boldly with
Their palettes’ pigmentations, full
Of nuances precisely caught.
I frame my words with metres’ forms
And rhythms’ complementing nails,
To hold my pictures in fit style
Matching a master-joiner’s arts.
Though all my scenes are drawn in black and white
Vivid imagination colours them.
