artist’s manifesto
a statement of purpose
write your own poetry
in the margins of mine.
keep my paper,
my prints,
my words,
on your table;
let them get sticky
with syrup and cream.
the great artistic compliment
is for work to be eaten
by a four-year-old.
i’m real.
i’m real.
use me
as a place
to begin.
Usually I have a little mini essay or something to go with these poems, but I think I’m going to switch things up a bit and just let them stand on their own from now on. They say what I want them to say already. :)
Enjoy <3
