Words and Paint

Words and letters are written on walls Some as vandalization others as messages Words and letters are written on walls Words and sentences are written on billboards Some serve as advertising others to arouse awareness Words and sentences are written on billboards Words and paragraphs are written on my brain Some serve as inspiration others to support guidance Words and paragraphs are written on my brain Words are the weapons I use in a society that controls my image Words are the only thing that can divide me from being ghetto or educated My words are the only thing that I can vouch for like my balls My words are the root of the intelligence that propels this sentence Letters in my words stand close to each other eager to make a statement If I do not show my words, my letters of cheerfulness begin to fade away Sentences are the compound of the mind that begs to be understood Sentences are made up of a tyranny chained down by a trendsetters mood My sentences contain verbs, nouns, adjectives and subjects that explain a lost purpose My sentences define the meaning of an ironical imagery that leads me to dream Sentences paint a picture that any blind character can see If I do not paint my sentences how will I ever show my brains art gallery Picasso used the paint brush to express his moods and feelings on a canvas Shakespeare and Allan Poe used ink to utter their thoughts on a sheet of paper Somewhere in my mind the collision of words and paint occurred Where I fused the essence of writing with the masterfulness of painting My words and sentences have met a significant other called paint Paint and words are my new best friend Paint and brushes are splattered and used upon walls Some are called vandalization while they represent artistic skills Paint and brushes are splattered and used upon walls Paint and words are written on subways So the eyes of the young and old can see the traveling message Paint and words are written on subways Paint and words smack up at my face So that the world sees who conveys this message Paint and words smack up at my face Paint gives visual to what words cannot picture My Paint serves as a method of expressing the mind’s tears and smiles My Paint becomes a tour guide through the loops of divine wonders Paint is just a stepping stone to the magnificent path of beauty A brush is just a brush depending on who holds it A brush is like the keyboard I constantly battle with to unleash my mind A brush can combine negativity and positivity and make peace A brush unites celibate beliefs with those whom are perverse Words and sentences along with paint and brushes help explain my motive Jonathan Pizarro Lost Cause © 2011 April 17th, 2011
