Unfinished
Born 1975, M, from Manchester, United KingdomI’m working on this story
and this poem
and this painting…
but I have
a quandary
a dilemma.
How will I know
when its finished?
I dab a bit more paint
on the canvas,
hoping I haven’t ruined it.
I add a twist to my story,
that the killer is actually
the driver, not the hitcher,
if that makes sense?
Does the story end there?
Maybe I should add a police chase
and a shoot-out.
I write another line
of the poem
adding astounding alliteration
but does it work?
Is it finished?
I’m working on this story
and this poem
and this painting…

06/18/2024Yeah, I find that with my stories and my poems, I reach the stage where, is this done? Is that the end? Do I add another twist to the story?? Add another line to the poem? And I watched a documentary about art the other week and these modern artists were adding more and more to their painting. It occurred to me, how do they know when they're done?? Cheers, Chris.
