the painter



The painter looks at his canvass
In his studio he ponders in his head
What is he going to paint on it?
There are so many things going in his mind

There are many tales to capture
The painter whistles with the sound
Blowing cold air in the studio
He holds his brush rolling in his fingers

He listens to the song “I am a preacher man”
He can’t get his subjects right in his mind
He looks at this canvass thinking what to proceed
Of so many tales and so many lies

He draws two circles
He can’t find his strokes
He feels he has too many in his head
He sits on his chair and stares at the canvass

He listens to “Whiter shade of pale”
Letting himself floating away
Forget about his canvass and his painting
“I am a preacher man” he smiles
