Irritatingly often unnecessarily compliant
to the whims of those about him
endlessly wordlessly wondering
about the many demented subjective qualities
of our ever present mammalian imperative via
a thought balloon filled with candy and bullets

Time descease,
Bright shine.
Ahead of the game,
Shown by evidence,

Body filled; tense.

If I can't walk, I'll crawl.
There's intense steam,

The Artist


She worked in water colors,
brilliantly mixed and textured.
Bold brush strokes, daubs of

in the passion of youth,
the scintillating shock of
