Analysis of When the Painter Paints
The painter paints, he mixes colors
and he graces us with his imagination.
The painter moves his hands
in what we call poetry of artistic motion.
The painter unleashes reality
set forth in dark mystery.
He does art inspired by what he feels.
But when love mixed with anger
and hatred will not bring the fondest painting
The painter will create
the darkest art ever done.
He colored the tears red like blood
and pain and sorrows blue.
He colored the sky dark
and begin to art his hell.
