Art Form

Artistic expressions are not always appreciated Such is the case with graffiti Which can often be seen on public transportation Causing frowns of consternation It can be seen on buses and trains Even on bridges, graffiti remains It's sprayed on buildings and walls A way for the artist to leave his calling card But is it vandalism or art? Or a way for gangs with a message to impart Political activists use this art form too To cleary state their point of view 4-18-2023

A good poem that leaves the options open for the reader, not forcing a point of view. Very objective, as we should be with everything. There is always at least 2 sides to every story. Cleverly penned, Joseph:)

I think graffiti is a form of art, especially when the painter portrays the images in a nice way. This is so beautifully expressed and presented, my dear friend. My best to you. Hugs, Brandy

A form of expression--they are really clever about where to paint their art so it is widely seen. Well expressed, Joseph.
