The Mirror
By Richard Moore
The meticulous detail of the evening sky,
just blobs, masses of color, in water
beneath: gunmetal shades, cold Rembrandt
yellows richly flecked with orange, and the
pinpoint exactness of the apartment house
all streaked and mournful below itself
in the pond’s vacancy, still and vibrant
there. Is this why old men’s eyesight
blurs—so they may see at last
the essential masses of things? And why
art is never exact, why
the greatest art is always simple,
careless even? And why, lost woman,
our harsh, improbable detail becomes at last,
in the imagination, a thing of mournful shadows
endlessly undulating into darkness?
