Crooked Pictures

I hope this one speaks for itself.

                                                  Crooked Pictures


                                 In some homes, the art always hangs askew.
                                 The paintings may be tastefully chosen
                                 and beautifully framed but seem to be
                                 sensitive to every footfall and doorslam.
                                 If truth is beauty, they tell all their truths
                                 aslant, and we must either be constantly
                                 straightening or re-hanging them on the
                                 level – or learn to tilt our heads.
