Pinata


to swing with all your might
into the unknown night
the sweet blind pursuit of dangling prize
stars bursting children laughing

to walk on air your feet dancing
the paper moon erupting

meteor and sugar trails
confetti falling from the sky
swing away with all your might
the waiting cloud burst of your dreams

  1. Oh my! I love this Rod! "The Paper Moon Erupting." I never thought of a pinata as a celestial being, but it's a lovely image. More importantly: This painting is just what I've been talking/reminiscing about. It has the qualities of earlier Smith work. Love it. Can't wait to see what else stems from this pinata tangent!
