To Paint a Sunset.

By. Crow Corleone

A clear slate
The brush dabs into the red
And absently brushes the paint onto
The empty canvas
A clear slate
Marred by crimson
A brush of pink
A flash of lavender
A hint of orange
Splotchy spots of gold
Artfully placed in what white was left
The area darkens and
I pause to gaze at my muse
And frowns
Was it me
Or did the muse move down?
