Detail of "Young Painter at His Easel" by Théodore Géricault (French, 1791-1824)

you fell in love with an artist
who covered up white lie after white lie
like they were blank canvases

with raspberry sunsets and ocean blue
eyes, sometimes with midnight forests

that waited in still silence for fires to
devour them because it’s the only way
for them to ever light up.

- L. V.

Detail of "The Painter in his Studio" by Francois Boucher (French, 1703-1770)

don’t fall in love with an artist.
they collect tears to wipe excess rain
bows off their brushes. they’d collect yours
to wipe their hands clean.

- L. V.

Detail of "A Painter at Work" by Paul Cezanne (French, 1839-1906)

i fell in love with an artist once,
who punched fault lines into my heart
and concealed them with red finger paint.

he hung it up to dry and everyone called it
beautiful.

- L. V.

Enjoyed reading the book of strangers. My favorites are Chrysanthemum for part 1 and a toss up between Snapdragon and Winterberry in part 2. I wish I was able to send in my story too.

I'm glad to hear you enjoyed it! Thanks for sharing with me your favourites. As for a part 3, maybe I'll just keep the submissions open? I won't give a deadline this time, and just have the collection out once I have gotten enough requests. I'd love to read your story as well :)

Same as before, just include an alias or let me know if you prefer to remain anonymous.

an open letter to the poet who left a bouquet of sonnets at my door
dear poet,
who is the "you" in your poems?
when did you meet?
where did you meet?
how did you meet?
& why does the "you" in your poems
hold so much light that i see you drowning in it

- L. V.

by Henri Fantin-Latour (French, 1836-1904)

& why does the "you" in your poems
punch black holes into your heart and in your lungs
that i see you are struggling to breathe
& oh wow there's so much blood
in your lungs
that i see you are coughing up
sunsets into your elbow

- L. V.

& i see you try to wipe it away
with your hands
but all you're doing is smearing
everything in red
& how does the "you" in your poems
hold so much light that you turn into a moth
& you are chasing the fire
& you know this won't end well
but you are chasing the sun
you keep chasing the end, dear poet

- L. V.

L. V., writing in the dark (pt. 6: because i don't know what to do with all this light)
