Abstract distractions, colours, light,
And yet the draw, of black and white.
Those tones that hide a core of grey,
So vibrant here, they hold all sway.
A complex palette, a touch forgot,
Its central piece, a Gordian knot.
With deep regard, discerning eye,
An absence felt, that flutters by.
A closeness brief, with touch so soft,
To raise this work of art aloft.
Complete? Not quite, one thing amiss,
That final gesture, that gentle…
