Handy Man

 by
Denise DeVries

Here's to the man whose paintings of hands
should gather applause all over the land,
who first built a gallery and then a museum
so people could come to  Kilmarnock to see them.
Mano a mano he took on the neighbors,
who, blind to his vision, derided his labors,
and those local bigots who just couldn't tell
the difference between him and any Manuel.
A handlebar-mustachioed artist, it seems,
shadows his work with surrealist dreams,
and gallery viewers walk to and fro,
pairing his name with Picasso, Van Gogh…
seeing the handwriting there on the wall,
but few have the eye to answer the call.
They drive down the road to buy a piece
with sailboats and herons, or maybe some geese.
He takes his handkerchief, wipes his brow,
and keeps on building anyhow.
His wife's a translator, his daughter an actor,
and he sculpts the land on a '54 tractor .

                                       CATALINAS
                                                 by Denise A. DeVries
                                          Dim and drowsy, hesitant, hazy,
                                                  draped in grayish gauze, 
                              they bide their time,  gently dozing all morning  


                              until day’s blaze drives us in from the glare

                                         Now they sidle closer, slipping

  •                                       from under their dusty veils,

                                       stalking wide-eyed on silent paws.

                                  Suddenly, we find ourselves nose to nose,

                                         the demure now bold, unblinking,

                                         showing their true colors, daring,

                                              distinct in every shadow,

                                           every sharp and rugged edge.

                             Our captured glance, like fascinated prey,

                              is pinned in plays of sunset and shadow

                                            until darkness falls

                                  and once again they creep away.

I, too, sing America
A success in my land
I've been reduced to washing dishes
under paid
I quit!
find a better job
prepare a home for my family
Tomorrow,
I'll own a corporation
an employer
never again
an employee
then
They'll see
how I raised my daughters
forged my sons
and regret
I, too, am America

For my father, Alvaro Ibañez, an immigrant from Colombia and the owner of
 A-Ibanez Art Design Inc.
