Thank You, Van Gogh
Dec 22, 2023
He scattered his sickness over
The field of sunflowers and
Convalesced by the sea over
Coffee and cake
His body and mind grew stronger
As the saltwater air reinvigorated
His thoughts and his imagination
Took flight beside a Sacred Ibis
At night, a nurse brought him a cigar
And he meditated under the stars
On the balcony as the tobacco
Burned and he relearned
What it meant to be
Alive
