"In a Round, About Way"

Tributes

by Jeph Johnson

 

Twelve concentrically symmetrical siblings
are circling outward in uneven patterns.

 

They share a common internal eccentricity
trying to escape the surrounding squares.

 

Two of them
are female.
One of them
my Mother.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

2004, Inspired by the painting "Squares with Concentric Rings" by Wassily Kandinsky
