I drew a line
on the high
wide wall
with a big
flat brush
full of rust
red paint
or a color
close to it
several feet long
and at least
a foot wide
then another
in black
longer and wider
with a third
in aqua
the color of
Mediterranean agua
wider than longer
and more
after that
in those colors only
on a wall
at first white
but not any more
some lines
going up
and down
others across
intersecting
overlapping
barely touching
rarely
standing alone
all in some way
connected
feeding one another
through
rough threads
dark in color
a scrap work puzzle
full throttle generator
lighting up the town
for miles around
what I did
with the lines
and colors I found.
