marlene mountain
other-line haiku sequence
1977



kid art

the good paper
i saved over a year . . .
gave it to my son

a drawing
i find it crumpled
uncrumpling it

kid art--
and then
matisse

bottom of a box:
those first drawings
on scrap paper

he scotch tapes his art
beside my abstract painting
ah: house, chimney, tree
