Tonya Cunningham
Negative Space
1962
Our mornings are beige.
I slash out at you in black and white.
You are as dry as toast.
Our telephone rings for
your dreams
not mine.
*based on untitled paintings by Elsa Thoresen 1960-1980
Tonya Cunningham lives in Lake Forest Park, WA where she teaches at a Waldorf preschool and enjoys wandering the PNW beaches. She most recently published two poems in the Ekphrastic Review.
