Art?
Wall art, word art.
Canvas, brick walls.
Tags, stencils.
Expression.
Political, personal.
"Raw and Unreal"
Totally real.
Idolize Banksy,
Hide your face, hide your name
Hide your soul.
Don't hide-
Spray it on a wall.
They'll paint over it
You know they will
But what they don't know
Is that it'll seep right through
their fresh white paint
No worries, no fear.
Red handed, never caught.
It's all that you've got
It's all that you are
A.W.O.L., -->gance, MES
It's all hidden in the cracks.
Mixed in with the skin of a little girl
Search hard-
Soul searching.
Hit pause.
Grab a fresh can.
Resume.
