You take such simple words and weave them into a poem of depth.
Is beauty not in the eyes of the beholder?
Do all wear their feelings on their sleeve? The canvas wears the feelings of the artist.
Feelings are in each stroke of the artist's brush. When the artist dies, his work and his feelings, lives on..."the wisdom of art." Mary

You are on a 5-7-5-7-7 syllable roll, aintchya !!! Another good one, and it pays well. Not to mention all caffeine-free-bright-wake-me-up colors you are using.

The rhythm is excellent, but the imagery isn't very strong. I had to read it a number of times just to get some meaning from it, and even then, only the first and last lines attract me.
Maybe it is meant to be difficult, and a mess, to represent your subject matter, but it seems to me less art, and more gobblygook.

Art can be viewed in so many different ways, sometimes people are too quick to judge it...
you stuck true to the Tanka form in your well written poem
thank you for sharing this short little poem that says so much!

Well, since poetry is one of those things no two people will ever experience in the same way, it is safe to say that I'm a little baffled by this.
Is it Art in the nude.. Or is it keen observation of the haste in which people assess and pass judgment on the things that they see. ( Like this right here).
To find the Mona Lisa in any body of raw art takes a knowing eye. To find Beauty in art that one does not fully conceive in a conceptual context is however, I feel, much more satisfying... After all, if everyone had a Mona Lisa on the wall, where would her beauty lie?... Certainly not in her uniqueness.
As for your Poem. Sharp, witty and concise. :)

You have done this form justice. You pack a lot of thought and imagery into so few words. Perhaps the presentation would be improved if it were spaced out more with some other pauses or gaps, just to make certain words more poignent?Anyway, I enjoyed it. Kind regards - GeorgeRoberts

I'm impressed. I don't know whether I've reviewed any of your work prior to today. I would think that I would've remembered it. I'm very impressed with how much you can convey with so little. cinn

Wise words from a wise person
Like the stance of a majestic
snow capped mountain
my perceptions speak to me
and I guise with profound wonderment
