Picasso: A Painters Revenge (Free verse) by SupremeDreamer
Oh good ole Picasso,
how could you go so low?
To beat a woman one night
lasts only a while
concerning the damage,
depending on how much
absinthe you drank.
That was just the beginning.
But then you clasped that brush
and painted their faces;
the once soft beautiful symmetry
molded into disarray
with your own hands.
Those rough hands captured
their pain and disfigurement
for eternity, creating paintings
that are adored and praised,
and will be for the rest of history.
A poets words can be buried
among pages, but bright colors
can never be tuned out of the mind
of the world, never.
