©Alexander Rosado-Muñoz Chrysalis 23″ x 30.5″ soft pastel, charcoal, acrylic / sealed cotton watercolor paper
A puzzling encounter with space and air flight related symbols from a ground perspective written in verse form and the recent mixed media work titled “Chrysalis”.
I was inspired to finish this mixed media work, which was close to completion but had been left on the back burner for quite a while, after writing the poem. I recalled having the work available and on the “ready for finishing touches” list, which seemed somehow befitting. Hope you enjoy.

Cling Oscillate Cloud
∗
Whitish bright light dusk impregnated mist,
outside, the streets, desolate luminous kiss,
nothing around me except structures unbound,
colors forsaken,
abandoned,
no sound.
∗
Up ahead is a symbol of space flight that is wobbling,
NASA’s trans border shuttle, rope tied and dangling,
pall nebula it’s rear, synchronous pendulum swing,
both shuttle and blank cloud oscillate unison cling.
∗
Approaching said spectacle, white haze all around,
quite reach touch this vehicle,
incredulous,
astound.
Stand and observe, time dubious plain sight,
sky distant chained airplane, amiss in high flight.
