Louvre

Within the Louvre

April 26, 2019 by Deanna Repose Oaks

As if in flight, they don’t look left and don’t look right
They don’t notice the walls as they rush through
They fail to notice the gilding, the fireplaces
The art on the ceiling
They never see beyond their line of sight
Past things that sparkle within their own right
Then they trample the patterns of the gardens
Forsaking the flowers for a shortcut
