HENRY MOORE GOES TO WASHINGTON*

You rush in
and pull out
with no prevention
in your idee fixe.
You're on loan.
You arrive
without arrival.
You're hiding
in dull shadows
of a bronze kiss
and you leave
in abscence.
How many times
huh?!
how
many
times
of you
of you of you,
In the in and out
of Washington,
in
and
out?!
and still wandering in angst.

*HENRY MOORE,THE BRITISH SCULPTOR
b.July 30,1898,Castleford,Yorkshire,England
d. 31 August 1986
See More of Moore:
my essay in farsi/persian,
Simorgh of Los Angeles,on the occasion of his retrospective in NGA
Moore believed in "direct carving and truth to materials"His direct experiences with war,made a war artist out of him ,drawing suffering of dismembered humankind ,in an unhealed  deep pain by humankind.
Henry Moore,like any other pure artist,was always wondering that who invented war,and who is going to stop this bloodshed ,someday in history.Family,maternity,women  and children ,and love were other subject occupations of his mind and  took him with his art,back to primitive era  of the man's life  in history,and provided tools for his artistic expressions.
