This is the fourth poem in an ongoing series of my experiences of visiting James Turrell skyspaces. I was disappointed that the Crystal Bridges Museum blocked visitor access to the outdoor installation during my visit a few weekends ago and hope they make the necessary repairs to the "Way of Color" tout suite...
day break
“closed for repairs &
maintenance” the stone
bunker broken down
metal grate blocking
approach, out-of-order
overhead blue yonder
still visible through
the oculus’ aperture
cut out of stainless
steel going through
the roof upon discovering
the repository’s shuttering of
the "place of contemplation"
5/19/12, “The Way of Color”, Bentonville, AR
