Jennifer's Veil

And don't try to reach out
and don't let the ship's flag down
down, down over her, like a shroud
and let her sail on the sea like a stone.
Don't touch and don't touch
and don't let the veil drop
another ship ready to dock...the rigging comes loose
...like Jennifer's veil...



Otto Dix - Still Life with Widow's Veil, 1925

这是我最喜欢的画之一。
