Concrete Moses

He's a blue-collar artist supreme.
With a medium of drywall and wet concrete.
He was laid off when Build Back Better lost its gloss.
He occasionally does side jobs... tax-free.
The beard is unkempt; he flashes a tattooed head.
He's donning a third-trimester belly. 
That he calls Johnny Walker Red. 
It's going to be some time until his next masterpiece.
