Studio8 - Uniting the Arts

It's a mean masterpiece
a painting slung in mud
a cruel self portrait
of what you will and what you would


and what you thought you could
you couldn't
or maybe just didn't want to
I don't know if it's a coup or a haiku


just my life's work
a mean masterpiece

mean and lean

to para phrase "Baba Rum Raisin"
"it is all grist for the writer's mill"

it is just that.....grist.....

show it: mean, median, mode--
masterpiece versed like an ode
not av'rage or cruel,
but raw (as a rule),
in-and-out flush of commode
