This posed a problem in ancient Loch,
As it’s not a canvas of Van Gogh.
     When paint ran down my arm 
     While squashed and ground bugs harm,
I still labelled it ‘Woolly Epoch’.

CURATOR’S NOTE
Period: ‘Holocene epoch’. Medium: Bug pulp, cave soot, elbow grease. Description: In this seminal work, the artist explores the tension between modern chaos and primal innocence. The squashed insect motif suggests a commentary on the fragility of existence, while the arm-smudge technique is a bold rejection of bristle brushes.
The above is a pseudo note in line with the humour of the Limerick.
