This poem is my respond to the challenge prompt: ”Oh Jeff, I love you too, but..” - you can read about it here, because the picture matters! It is Roy Lichtenstein's "I love you but" from 1964.

I feel so square and dimensionally flat

You kill me with your charming chat

I want you to buy me diamonds and fullness

To take me out where I can be frameless

You should smoothe my jailing raster

First then you can be my master.
