Is that you, statue?
Who are you? Are you blue?
Standing stiff, standing still
Always watching the same hill?
I was impressed when I heard
A sculptor visualised an angel
But a portrait painter, maybe
Sees inside as well
In a block of rock
On an empty page
With hammer, pencil in your hand
You populate your stage
Unmoving figues have their place
Recording a moment in time
While kinetics create a moving face
More like yours and mine.
A work of art has pinned a pose
You walk around it, see some more
Thank goodness I'm a living thing
And not stuck to the floor.
