BRANCUSI'S STONE
(1876-1957)

In an uninhabited room
we pass the acrostic display

you having been born
with a minimalist art

in a visionary
from geometric lines

transported through time
hands and fingers

in these deep indexes
of diminutive  heads

and bodies of language
beaten out of rock

from marble,wood
the bronze and metal

in Dionysian exoticism
and Byzantine eroticism

from dada fish tails
and birds in spaces

without wings or feathers
of curvaceous cubism

of spilled creative miracles
for a once secretive language

of art opened up as an oracle
to be witnessed for all centuries.
