To the sound of the 9th

by Ludwig Van

Today. moments ago. I took a fresh canvas out. In order to paint a skull.

How banal. How Morbid. I took my largest brush and swiped it with cobalt blue and white.

A few drops of Turp. Then Deciding I needed more blue. I grabbed the ultramarine blue.

Unthinking I swiped the tube against top third of the canvas. Paused. grabbed the largest brush.

covered it in Turp. Swiped it over and over again with a one inch margin between swipes. The

Turp was so heavy. I let the canvas run. I have not words to describe the sublimity.
