MICHAUX'S SPECTRUM

In Michaux's spectrum
from an authentic poet
and surrealistic painter
in a dramatic continuum
of his antidote of a show
from Belgium to Paris
hailed by the critic
Andre Gide
your life would not fail
as you would decide
to bail out of reality
within an esoteric
and psychedelic fantasy
ease dropping mescaline
in a pictorial calligraphy
from a series of miracles
in a chronicle of depth
opening an internal space
of density and immensity
from traces of a consummate
spectator in corridors
of his experimental nature
in art's engravings
of originality, energy
geometric synergy
and eccentric elasticity
stretching our imagination
in saving his cerebral soul
for the imaginative critic
among articulate drawings
favoring a famous terrestrial goal
of an earth-wise magic
without a sinuous precursor
vertical predecessor
or logic's horizontal symmetry
within a generous free spirit
on a continuous journey
in a sensuality to explore.
