Swan Dive, acrylic on linen, 43"x43" © 2002

Her smile was shaped like other smiles -
The Dimples ran along -
And still it hurt you, as some Bird
Did hoist herself, to sing,
Then recollect a Ball, she got -
And hold upon the Twig,
Convulsive, while the Music broke -
Like Beads - among the Bog -
--Emily Dickison, 514
