I’d like to paint
with words
grand vistas of vowels
drawing consonants with canvases
rough drafts depicting
sketchy underworlds
sheltering fractured souls
still
life’s surreal 
for those trapped 
below the acrylics of society
high from huffing
an oil economy 
auctioned off 
to the richest bidder
Christ eases
and art pops
expressionistic narratives
for the impressionable
propagandised with daily print
and wondering
how to abstract
what’s real
