Abstract Valentine

That I could creep you out
or cheer you up
love gives away the farm
where we used to live
with the harmony of a painting
‘Nostalgia Marries Irony’
those were their actual names
the models drawn from life
in a modern abstract style
already dated at the time
while steadily whatever
artist draws us drew on
until there we were at last
sketched in fading colors
on the canvas of the past
