Day 29 – National Poetry Month

April 29, 2019

Prompt #29: Write a poem about your interpretation of abstract art.

---

Abstraction

When a painter yields colors
When a writer yields characters
When a poet yields rhythms
When a sculptor yields realism
When an artist yields
Control
And all that’s left is
You
Do you run?
Do you look away?
Do you close your eyes?
Do you stare?
Do you… stare?

– Pablo Rubín (12th grade)
