i have completed my mountain hermitage

there was to have been a waterfall outside my window but my brush faltered each sheer plunge of water refuses to flow rather hangs in mid-air resembling chunks of concrete

it must be my american influence the top of the painting seems endless

white space holding on to pins of air

a wall of silence so immense it covers the sky

Alan Chong Lau Alan Chong Lau is a poet and painter exhibiting his art locally at ArtXchange Gallery in Seattle, Washington.
