Lesson 40

Poverty is a state of mind that’s bled
into reality like run off paint
onto canvas, ruining a perfect picture—

A perfect picture painted to be
the portrait of a human being so successful
that it could be hung on museums—

But now, the run off paint has turned it to ruin,
and no museum, cafes, or even piss stained walls
on back alley streets will have it anymore.

And then there is also graffiti that turns spills and splashes into masterpieces— could there be hope after all?
