Standing Shoulder to Shoulder

She did a mixed media sculpture —

three Pillsbury boys of dough

who stood arrow straight in a row.

 

One was a Native American,

one a cowboy in chaps,

the third a Mexican, perhaps.

 

A woman stopped by the gallery

to say she bought the fun piece

renaming it for her, her sister and

niece.

 

Which just shows to go, ya;

art is in the eye of the beholder

of dough boys or girls standing

shoulder to shoulder.

  1. Love this … yes, we see what we want to see … and I love the way you’ve said it here … a fine piece of gentle writing … gets the job done.
