Come one, come all,
Come see the invisible painting
For a small fee you too can behold
The absence on the wall
It is the work of a great artist
The only one of its kind in existence
Naturally no one can touch so rare a painting
But that does not detract from its magnificence
Doubters come see for yourselves
The empty frame
Note the artist’s mastery of concealment
How all the lines and colours and shades
Combine to create perfect transparency
Become so lost in the work as to forget
That you are looking at a painting at all
Oh yes, my friends, you too can say
You have seen the invisible painting
But only for a price
