With chalk or pen,

And thus,

Her art is born.

Face Made of Hands___by Patrick Arrasmith

Hands,
Wrists,
Forearms borne,
Gentle grip,
Or clenching hard,
Fingered lips a mouth surround,
All to form a face made of hands.

Out of Order___ by Grzegorz Szczerbaciuk

Catlike creature,
But human born,
Shaped supple muscle,

Bone.

Nude,
Not naked,
Uniquely complete,
Completely unadorned.

Like a Vision from an ancient time,
A figure balanced upon a column marble,

Arise Narcissus, return Demeter from Hades' realm,
And Let Stravinsky's music fill my ears".
