Going Out
-- To the "Young Woman at the Window, Sunset" painted by Matisse (1921)
Alongside the reddened seawater, around the rim, the rim
Unknown people are far, far away
The red sky, the color of purple
The woman is touching the sky
The fixed window, the transparent window
Touching the palm trees, the dark blue palm trees
Her hand, fingers totally detached from her body
Note on Muse:
The woman looking out of the window from inside always stirs my heart. I become others the moment I see others. While looking at this painting, I too am stretching my hand to touch the palm tree leaves.
