Untitled

A painting I see has me to believe.

A man portrayed in a civil place
A dusty cloud surrounds and emulates his faith
Torn trousers dressed around, keeping the screams from vocalizing a torturous 
sound

Day dreaming leaving on a journey;
Sure never to return wishes of eternity
Fruitless searches travels of many grounds
A Gas pump being the only salvation found

Dirty soul forbidding control
Rotting fruit has taking its toll
Demon filled juice clinging, grasping
For truth bowing to the submitted kick kept-
Down never seeing the sky why try 
In this painting one mans story is showing
A realistic sense of pity, which was not to find glory
