Brown bag art

Post by creativesoul » March 19th, 2017, 9:27 am

Like reading a book about sex on the bus
I cut up brown paper gessoed it
Crunched it
Like jeans this canvas went to heaven
Brought back a woman from behind
With long blue hair
I sold her for 36$ yesterday
What seemed a fluke an experiment in texture
Reusing paper already made
Fucking microwave beeping
Coffee
Gave away the expression machine
When I move
It's coffee out
Or microwave
It's messy and stinky
I started telling myself I'm pretty at 60
As this self breaks free
I have at last
Loved me
My notions, ideas- paintings and poems
Rolling out of me transmission after trying
Too hard giving up and in
Finally I feel good again
Thank you
The force my ancestors God Jesus
All saints medicine people angels - thank you for my life
For allowing love to lighten the dark places and heal the sick
reason is over rated, as is logic and common sense-i much prefer the passions of a crazy old woman, cats and dogs and jungle foliage- tropic rain-and a defined sense of who brings the stars up at night and the sun up in the morning---

fucking microwave
for a long time I usta stand in front of it while I was cooking my steel cut oats and watch the numbers count down to zero and imagine the numbers reprepented** represented the minutes and seconds I had yet to be a citizen of the usa
oh yeah
money for nothing
is this a great country or what
never could get my head around cash value of it
whatever the market will bear

I owe a lot to the martyrs to their art
I would more crazy than I am with out them

so take care baby sister
button up your overcoat
and don't mind me I am just ramblin the way old men do
thanks for the poem enjoyed much 8)
**I love typos, someday soon I will probably reprent :lol:

as we age it seems we pay more attention to what;s important, and of course much of that is subjective, but i do believe we have more in common that not when we tally up the issues

being thankful is a big part of contentment in my mind...being passionate about something and empathetic are also personal keys to unlocking the doors of peace, and coloring things in a favorable light...

True! Thank you! Maybe they should listen to the spirit more...
