His teacher taped a brush
to his nose. Goat works
gently, carefully for hours.
The result is startling.
All are impressed.
It’s like looking in a mirror,
someone says. Goat drops his palette,
kicks through the canvas, shreds
the frame between his teeth.
He wants no one else to look.
from GOAT lies down on Broadway. For more info see here.
