Work of Art

In response to the Monday Mural:

Work of Art
July 7, 2008

In a few simple lines
you captured that sculpture
by which all other works of art
are measured,
from Lascaux to the Barchetta.

A graceful curve,
soft shadows,
a strong backbone.

That some may twist and profane
the most beautiful work
of the greatest Designer
does not make anything vulgar
but their own eyes.
