II.VII
Returning to the painting she laid bare
with beauteous but disturbing figure shown
a significant departure from her fare
depicting people and the places she has known.
Now she has recovered from her ills
the painting reeks from pigments she has used
blood and faeces mixed with love and pills
and hairless brushes that she has abused.
She fancies she can hear the figure speak
of life beyond the Wolverhampton taint
and possibilities anew begin to leak
through a body of new work she’s yet to paint.
