The Edges of Things

untitled collage Leslie Avon Miller

I like the edges of things

the way two elements come together

and are changed by the experience.

A third energy is born

To explain this in words

is to diminish the happening.

And yet I endeavor

to explain.

 

This morning I watched the sunlight

create a multitude of abstract paintings on my walls.

A strong dash of a line.

A pattern with rhythm.

In our solitude we are one person.

In our interactions, at the edges,

we experience a portal

and become, even fleetingly, changed.

 

My art avoids the boxes of words,

and moves to another dimension.

A dash of a line.

A pattern with rhythm.

This is my poetry.

This is the essence of my content.

At the edges I am changed.
