Material (Christina Pugh)
Such galactic dips of abstraction—
sumptuous, celestial, laced
within the figuring oils themselves,
so blued rick-rack of Victorian stick
style will plume bright white as it
mirrors a lighthouse in swelled
orthogonal swells of light; electric
cobalt steel blue rimming the
windows, then chiseling a chimney,
much as atoms pack and hive
into the shape; thus abstraction
shores up ground, lends it (flying
buttress) supreme weight.
