What does a muse do to a person to make them paint like Picasso in this style?
Picasso In Estrus
10/25/25
I am in the heat of my moment
Frenzied by instinct..
I feel you near..
And I succumb.
So much so..
that I fail purposely in my endeavor,
give a mangled vision of what I see..
what I feel,
what I desire.
And so I paint my lack on canvas black
Adding colors..
Adding lines..
tho not the mind..
nor e'en heart..
that paints.
I am in the throes of my primal being..
it is what I give to you..
not picture perfect..
but to what I am reduced.
Unwavering,
Unapologetic lines on canvas,
your image in my soul
as the lust,
dethrones the art..
..PEACE
