when your own paintings scare you

as the clock misses 12.30 in night's AM
I hear news from India
young kids sleep on coir
found in the depth of a jungle

one looks at a black and white painting
exactly, around a year old
it's the parrot lady and she's not nude
she looks unflinching at me
my signature beside her face

penetrating under the yellow night lamp
Wellington drops another celsius
