the wet paint drips
drips
drips
onto the canvas covered floor
oh, why did you
leave that window open?
why did you
not close the door?
why did you let my masterpiece
of fluttery things
of painted wings
acting the part of regal kings
fall into a swirling, whirling
chaos?
for now I will have no
peace
until the drips
cease

Your clever title made me click on your work. You have very clever ideas surrounding this poem but it was almost like it wasn't enough of the poem to fill me up. You drew me in but I was left wanting more, to learn more about this world you were creating. The reason I want more is because it's great and clever. Have you thought of adding maybe a part two? I loved it and it's beauiful. Great job!!!! Feel proud :)
