Compton Ghetto Art Christmas

youd have to see it to believe it but im making compton famous a medusa mask tribal leave a candle burning and a wall of clocks and mirrors and a wedding day gift i painted so you walk to your car or into your apartment and my window do you see the blinds always drawn shut but this artist game is open season for criminals like me there is a candle burning beside the book with exactly that title a kite and a flag of rainbows and several mirrors to haunt your soul kept safe by the hands of time in case you have shattered one but the grinch of the ghetto christmas is reminding one and all to behold the cracks that keep us cold in the winter the pots and the pans sure it seems messy but there is such a method to the madness a pet nmaed rock and no cats are allowed but when you wlak by or drive by this view of the closed curtain of lights and delights we're onto the mayor of the surprise holiday now remember loose lipped sunken shppied
