Bloodshed
BLOODSHED
HIS BLACK LIFE ON CANVAS
HIS BLACK LIFE ON PAPER
PAINTED BLACK AND RED
8
I TRIED HARD NOT TO LET
THE RED LIFE’S BLOOD SPILL
OFF THE CANVAS
8
I WANTED
TO PUT IT BACK IN HIS BODY
AND MAKE HIM WHOLE AGAIN
8
TRY TO RECONNECT WHAT WAS
LOST FOR HIS BRIEF TIME HERE
8
SO MUCH BLOOD SHED HIS LIFE
GONE GONE TOO SOON
8
WANT TO HEAL ALL HIS WOUNDS
FOR THE MOTHERS AND FATHERS
THAT HAVE LOST ONE
8
WHO CAN’T PICK UP THE PIECES
AND START AGAIN
8
I TRIED HARD NOT TO LET
THE RED LIFE’S BLOOD SPILL
OFF THE CANVAS
8
I WANTED
TO PUT IT BACK IN HIS BODY
AND MAKE HIM WHOLE AGAIN
