Graffiti

GRAFFITI

Graffiti such a lovely art form you are
so expressive yet you can be so fine
ever you are persecuted with powers be
persecuting u and you're declared an illegal art form
of all the arts graffiti you get destroyed and demonized
is it i ask myself that they are unable to see your beauty
see and appreciate your beauty or is it lack of the know
lack of understanding so persistent amongst the authorities
of you i pen blessed of art forms true to name and size graffiti

Like the way your poem looks at graffiti, Lewis. They should put up concrete walls at parks or other places for graffiti contests and the like--where the artists can get a chance to win some money.

on this one David i totally it hurts to see such nice art painted over and the artist arrested... special places are good.. online sensitization through graffiti uploads and social network is another.. we can also create special magazines which show cases graffiti and tell stories about the artists...**** lewis
