d'ou venons nous? que sommes nous? ou allons nous?

Paul Gauguin, you are my June.
your painting gives off heat that mirrors the wooden floor.
If you seeked a society that was more elementary, I think I found it for you,
here, in your painting.

How many roads are there to simplicity that you looked for?
The human web caught you too,
you too became a victim.

Paintings have no choice but to survive the artist;
the people you froze in this frame would never know
if you found what you came here looking for.
