Draw

Khalid Mukhtar · March 22, 2017 · Leave a Comment

Twelve-year-old drew this segment of our bedroom’s prairie-facing wall with incredible ease. I’ve got to get kid into an art class.

And yes, I had to write something to mark the effort.


Stain glass bowl
By itself
Sitting on
The bookcase shelf
Flanked by drapes
Aegean blue
Sheers white
All watching you
Draw them
Shut
