King Mediocre 164 x 212 cm. (64.9 x 83.15 in.) acrylic, oil stick, spray paint and graphite pencil on canvas Facing all my fearsWith silent primal tears Showering my peersGrabbing at strawsSwinging from treesChucking spearsSomething seems queerI’ve heard the jeersSeen the sneersA constellation of spheresI’ve made my careerBegging for your cheersIt’s crystal clearI sense that you’re nearIt’s bizarre I’m a starUnfazedStill running plays from the old daysRiding the wavesAnother fleeting craveCrazy like a crazeEntering a new phaseChanging my evil waysThe way I behavesOnly my mother gives praise But still I’m dazedConfused and amazed Still chasing my tail in this mazePutting the future in front of the pastFirst things first last things lastThat deserves its own paragraphBut this is just a rough draftAt best AlasThis is going nowhere fastMastering my craftAt lastOn pointAnd on taskFeeling rashTaking every riskFlying my flag at full mast Similar works PaintingsSacrificial LambPaintingsQuarantine
