A Portrait Of An Artist; The Artist As A Young Man/ The Young Girl Before Me Poem by Bijay Kant Dubey

A portrait of an artist
Make I,
The artist as a young man,
No, no, young man not,
A young woman.

Sketching the photo of hers,
Want I to hang it on
On the wall of the house,
Decorating it so elegantly,
The portrait of an young artist,
The artist as a young man.

And the art turning it lively,
A girl as a model
Sitting before me
And I drawing her sketches, images,
One of flesh and blood before me
Which but the eyes cannot believe it.
