I’m building a wall Ochre color, tan and tall I hired an artist to paint a mural Graffiti subtleties that will unfurl White-washed and Chicano like me I fell hard for him, exposing clarity I knew there was no chance in hell He’d choose a brown, White-washed Chicana for a spell So, I’ll just play the victim and twist truth around And make myself feel safe and sound With my awesome poetry that I have in a bank After twenty years of writing, I should be swank There are plenty of Chicano painters in stock I'll pay 'em with personal poems I keep under lock I hear Cheech paints, Keanu Reeves too He’s Hawaiian but he’ll surely do 5/29/23

Nothing like a little amorous poetry at 5 in the morning. It brought a smile to my face. Thanks. Wonderful way to start the day... coffee and a little poetry. Thanks my friend.

Another excellent wrote. Be proud of your heritage, always Your image outstanding….. Your writing is edgy,,a great thing. You know I admore perplexed su afraid to be themselves. A heart in apoem, far more powerful than innocuous emptiness. This is a hard world Hugs, Panagiota Xx

Thank you, Pangie! I've had an explosive experience, that actually turned out to be a God send, to reinvent myself and just be free to be me. A hard world indeed, and even though I wear a smile, there are many tears that flow behind the scenes. Hugs to you! ;D

Really, I was going to take it down, this resulted from the WTF contest, a parody. It's hilarious, had a good time! Truth is, I only started writing a year and a half ago! I have no idea if Cheech or Keanu paint. Lol Thank you, Victor xhugsx
