Questions about the writing on the walls
Writing on walls
always warrant some questions.
Why deface walls at all?
Have you no canvas as tall?
For whom exactly is your message intended?
Ask me why I feel offended?
Graffiti? Really?
Did this place not inspire ease?
Who do you think will be pleased?
I for one am sad that nothing
is left to the imagination.
Were you looking for inspiration?
This was such a zen place.
Now the Coqui feels disgraced.
No one can concentrate on its sweet song at night.
The distraction is too great.
What does it say anyway?
Nothing that means something to me?
So you see
the writing was not on the wall afterall.
*I love art. I respect all art forms. I support freedom of expression. What I hate is when such serene and beautiful natural spaces are obstructed or defaced.
* The Coqui is a small cricket indigenous to the Island of Puerto Rico.
The question you pose is very suitable … I’ve seen ancient ruins with ancient graffitti on them .. the question of why is as old a people have been able to scrape something on a stone wall … but doesn’t make you poem less contemporary … a fine write.
