narrative artist's Pieces
"Skull"
sorrowful skull
the scull had seen so much in its life
so much colour and vibrance through it's eyes
so many actions and thoughts took place
but when the scull died, it lost it all
no more eyes to see colour
and not a brain to think, or move
just a sorrowful, motionless skull,
with a past like no other living thing around it
forever etched in time.
"History Of Black People"
The history of black people is complex
from the first kings, to western culture
there has been a wide gap of painful years
but also ones of happiness and elebration.
fom the boats to America
To the civil rights movement
black people have worked hard to be where they are
and are evergrowing
and fighting to be considered equal.

clown painting
I got fired from my job four months ago. I used to be a divorce lawyer. I got fired for showing up to work late, and drunk one day after my wife left me for another man. Now I'm just a sad, drunk clown. I show up to children's birthday parties for a living, and do hat tricks. all my life consists of anymore is that, and going out to eat, because the sound of other people in the same room tends to be comforting. if that's what my life has come to, I don't really know why I just don't just go ahead and end it. I've lost everything. my wife, my daughter, my job, and my dignity. I wear this caked on makeup to Luccini's restaurant every day, partly because I don't feel like taking it off, and partly because I don't want my true face to be seen.

Pan: Me? I've had so many names. Old names that only the wind and the trees can pronounce. I am the mountain, the forest and the earth.
Carmen: You're getting older, and you'll see that life isn't like your fairy tales.
The world is a cruel place. I believed in a lot of things I don't believe anymore.
