Dense Poetry
The poem was so densely packed
with symbolism, metaphor, and allusion,
that the letters forming the words
became very tightly compressed
losing their individual form,
and merging to create a heavy
viscous substance. However,
having so little in common
with the bland background,
this amalgam simply slid
off the unworthy surface
leaving behind a stark
white page where
a poem had
once

How long after picking up the brush, the first masterpiece?
The goal is not to obfuscate that which is clear, but make clear that which isn't.
