♠️Если небо цвета Матисса
И при полном параде Луна —
Раздвигает ноги Графкисса,
Нам в чернильную ночь пора!
Там собачьим аншлюсом не пахнет,
Там мы — слитки в плавильном цеху.
Утекаем в страну без башен
На волнистом ночном берегу.

Yaroslav Kulikovsky. Vienne, 2020 (c).
Part of the cycle: Poems on City Flesh and Power.

This poem is an escape from reality into personal myth. Here, Matisse isn’t a painter — he’s a portal. The moon is the night’s conductor. The Grafkiss is a gate of longing. Self-realization begins with imagination — when you stop obeying geography and start inventing it. To be yourself is to know the way to a towerless land.
