I loved the line "Van Gogh's ear remains full of questions." It just creates so many thoughts about what kind of questions it could contain and what ever happened to the ear. Where would it be now?
That Van Gogh's ear remains full of questions-
unanswered, now that it lies mummified
at the bottom of a Pawn Stars' counter,
next to identical padlocked boxes of
Elvis's tissues and Goldie Hawn's soiled
thongs.
Van Gogh scratches at his grave knowing
these questions are likened to
broken ping pong paddles from a Forrest Gump set,
and a "one of a kind marriage certificate of Lisa Marie Pressley
and Nicholas Cage."
Questions, for now,
silently smack against the walls.
