I am a self-employed
freelancer
living from whim to whim
who with half hazard
abandon
freely sketches out
the gesture
of those
who pose
for me and
leave hazy
and blurred
the images
of others
who stayed
in motion
I don’t paint
what I see
so much
as leave
brushstroke
fingerprints
behind
like a poet
leaves
evidence
at the scene
of his rhyme

— Ivan Jenson
