What if?


What if I were to say this painting’s done? 
That the thousands of curving brush strokes, 
The drips, the scrapes, the splashes are enough; 
That there’s no need for lines, for spots, 
For tiny squares and illegible words — 
All the marks that I could add; 
Crisp afterthoughts, to give it definition… 
Might that not say that I, too, am enough?
