Don't let that horse
eat that violin
cried Chagall's mother
But he
kept right on
painting
And became famous
And kept on painting
The Horse With Violin In Mouth
And when he finally finished it
he jumped up upon the horse
and rode away
waving the violin
And then with a low bow gave it
to the first naked nude he ran across
And there were no strings
attached
Most deserving as The Modern Poem Of The Day! A hilarious sketch by the great poet Ferlinghetti. About the cubistic-expressionistic french-russian painter how Chagall had become famous, of course very strange if a horse eats violin strings!
Holy Kenneth Clark, Batman. Naked nude with no strings attached. Droll
