Dream Poem 42: Icon class
Does it matter? That
there are only two Iconographers?
Does it make any difference?
So
Its compulsory is it?
I like that.
The formula and the
layers of colours,
the shapes of the
clothes, like mountains in a geometric, cubist landscape,
Russian Constructivisim
in high Modernity,
all angular lines,
intersecting and crossing.
A map of the
constellations in the firmament,
the London
underground,
canals of Amsterdam,
the geometry of De
Stijl,
of Bauhaus architecture.
The set of the eye,
the contour of the
beard
It is compulsory.
To paint an icon is
to understand the face of sacrifice.
by this Holy Face miraculous
deeds have occurred,
blessings bestowed,
kisses kindly given,
boundaries reached
and overcome.
New places of praise
opened up, inside.
