November PAD Chapbook Challenge – Day 11: Rothko

 
Day 11: write a ‘portrait’ poem (see link)
 
Rothko
 
A doorway suspended,
ripped out of speckled light,
becomes a skinny frame of blood,
a portal of curious apparitions
gazing out, to be stepped inside,
a misshapen city shrouded
in haze inviting lost souls
to wander, explore spellbound,
be swallowed whole by
red on maroon.
