#99: portrait


  #45: dog faced artboy

seeing how and why he is conflicted isn't easy.
his heart is sick of all the problems he can feel contain it.
cutting up the road before him in a hundred million ways
doesn't seem to help.

if he cannot learn to love and tolerate himself,
no one actually cares. weathering his private storms
in a stoic, quiet way … he tends to not say how he feels.
everyday stopped-up inside …

traipsing down a rutted road, flustered by complexities,
the problems far beyond his ability to solve … dog faced
artboy contemplates the dog-eared corners of his rage.

a full-throated need to exceed the limitations of his life…
he turns away and shrugs. sensing the endless frustration
he feels will bring something better to
a still unseen and distant place.
