A chair
and a painting
are in love
they resemble
each other
this happens
rarely
it takes a
long time
for a chair
and a painting
to fall in love.
One of them
is geometrical
and slides
across curves
against
a black ground.
The other
is floral.
The floral
once had a
fraternal
twin rug
but it was
exiled.
