Poem rhyme scheme AABCCCBC - after the AA, you expect BB, but the shift from B to C and back is designed like the shifting skies, to disrupt expectations.

I clicked on a 60-word max contest based on the picture with "1 day to go" and finished by 11:40 Sydney time, only to be told when I went to submit it that it had just closed. Perhaps the poet lived in New Zealand, two hours ahead of us.

Not a problem, I enjoyed writing it as the image looked like a daytime mirror to Van Gogh's famous "Starry Night". I've copied the picture so you can see what I was looking at. Here are some notes I made in one of the comments to explain my ideas:

The premise is that Van Gogh's paintings owe some of their characteristics to an interaction between mental illness and the substances he used. He was treated with digitalis, which apparently may explain the particular use of yellows, and in addition, was known to drink regularly, particularly absinthe which has mind-altering problems, and almost certainly accidentally ingested solvents from his paints, as he was known to suck his brushes at times, and was a regular smoker. Opiates were another possibility, although the evidence for that seems scant.

So I chose that path for two painters, Vincemt and "I", one painting the night sky, and the "I' doing the day, to link to the picture.
