finer things

at this moment
I'm into ceramics
porcelain precisely
musing Rodin's Thinker
the ritual starts as

posing on blanched throne
considering finer things
and simple pleasures
while perusing a page
in deep bowels of thought

then turn and discern
what has been sown
to feel buoyant again
oh this bodily function
has its own compunction

Probably only you could write about having a c...p in poetic form. I do prefer your more esoteric subject matters, admittedly, being a tad squeamish.

very nice write GG, Rodin did some very fine sculptures like the lovers, but the sculpture that captures my attention when i think of Rodin is one attributed to Degas, 'La Petite Danseuse de Quatorze Ans'. It has always reminded me of Rodin's work and now it has been mentioned on the net that Degas may have collaborated with Rodin in the making of it! The question is, 'will you be having such ponderings when looking at the little ballerina from now on?'
