Ekphrastic Poetry from Kahlil Crawford

white squares float
within an ivory field:

no referential frame,
minimal abstraction –
une réalité externe.

the artists’ palm
paints life’s textures:

asymmetrical purity,
A Love Supreme.

“Suprematist Composition: White On White”, Kazimir Malevich, 1917-18

  1. Love the poem K.C.
    It captures the pure abstraction of infinity of Malevich!
    Thanks for sharing it.
