Juan José Gárate Claveros' 'Banquete Interrupido'
is it a good day
for the bull
who interrupts the banquet?
dark figure
tail up
all horns out of sunlight
scatters a trestle for fruit
a still life
under the table
or leapt on top
what stockings, lace!
cinnabar velveteen
so
little disarrayed
this haberdasher's catalogue
ears covered
so there's just the image
wigs and hats and furniture
calories burnt off with stress
every hand expressive
to show how hands are drawn
evil eye over the doorway
Madonna for calm
in her dark niche above
stone impassive
as the bull is ancient
what pleasure in this stillness!
in the moment
we
none of us
know
what we do
in the Museo Carmen Thyssen in Malaga
Ole such bravocity ... The theatre of it all and human condition a study.
ReplyDeleteLace and hands as you say to show how draw....super :)
This rambunctious hilarious and frightful fleeting interruption you so well have convey here.
Gotta love the guy with the small bench - our hero? Love the finale Kit.
