Sarah St Vincent Welch #88 Strange frames i and ii

i.

reflections in shop windows

like paintings in a gallery

each window a frame

outside and inside blended

together

or a camera obscura

image, people about their day

banal and astounding all

at once

ii.

in the school, pastel backs

of student art work

pressed against the panes

remind me of Mondrian

but a little summer faded,

him painting to boogie woogie

and children swing dancing
making art
