    I whisper, "Paint and draw
    a sad man; behold his
    flaunting posture, a
    balanced silohette that blends
    the moment above some crazy mother chant."

    Beneath a blue portrait you
    dress surreal stares in nude scarlet,
    manipulating the raw sweep of sweat
    (water to blood) delerious from illussion,
    drunk with the bittersweet suffering of
    wasted life. Frantically I recall mostly

    screaming detail: smooth symmetry of
    proportion not quite advanced to unity.
    I am opaque, but he is clear to eternity.

    Me: Tiny figure haphazardly sordid, but felt
    most importantly. Gone are
    these absurd arms,
    electric girl exposed or etched
    in ugly strokes, depiction
    angry abstract floods of space.
    My Death: A comedy that inspires shape.
