she likes to eat reverb off of fat faces
laced with stratagem smiles
waiving to comfort
us free slaves
so she can spit it
back out in spades
and help save the day
for the few who choose
to Believe
Hello Dverse, Thank you for coming over to read the second poem linked for Dverse. The first line is on a mixed media project I had made awhile back, but I think it’s a fun idea and can be used for many other expressions.
I can only concur with what others have written Ms Hannah – you articulate well with your pen – that first 2 lines simply had to read and re-read – thank you. :-)

Thank you. Well I’m just teaching myself about types of art, aside from pencil and stippling I do. My mind needs freedom! awgh:) so I just tried collaging within a paint box with eclectic items and poetry explaining the theme. Just fun. :)

Thank you:) ahh just teaching myself about different kinds of art,more hands on than drawing and stippling I do. Collaging with eclectic items and using a paint box and with poetry for story. I thought back to kindergarten projects I used to do. Fun stuff for creating and freeing the mind:)
