tissue paper armor
the woman
like me
bows to art
we hurt each other shredded
just to write suture
and pigment-patch
us back
together
let's laugh aloud
as tears dilute
each medium
stab me a heart my dear
and i'll help you matte it
(pretending it's not mine),
we'll systematically hang it
using a level
a worn rounded hammer
and 3/8 inch tacks;
hidden
behind a sculpted wooden frame
that cherubs committed suicide
to be depicted in
i'll ignore your fear
to all the way fall
and will trash pick
sandpaper scraps
to polish my shit
hide
and rise
behind our art
because it's not life
or death
we waste our time on
it's love

You got a Dali painting in words here in my opinion. What ever you do in your editing ( gently gently please :D ) don't lose that surreal edge this has got. It is friggin fabulous :)

(I'm glad someone is finally causing the Raphael cherubs to die off. I'm sick of seeing those fuckers on bathroom wallpaper.)
This... is made of awesome:
"stab me a heart my dear
and i'll help you matte it "
Then you blast into the meticulous framing and hanging steps as a metaphor and it was kickass.
(You know, you could have worked a stretched canvas image to hell and back in the midst of that.)
This was really a killer read, LB.

Thank you Betty. Love when they work for ya.
Ya know there is nothing more enticing or scary to me than a woman that handles art... The stretched canvas is an interesting image that I may think on.
Again, thanks for reading n commenting
