THE MONSTER OF VENICE BEACH - Songs of the Homeless (Art & Micro-Verse Merged)


 Do you know what its like to be laughed at by strangers?

To scare little children who pass you by?
To be arrested and labeled a likely suspect because I’m ugly?
To hear the whispers “he’s fat so he’s not really homeless”.

Do you feel my shame?
Do you see the way my face reddens, my eyes filling with tears?
Do you really have any idea of my humiliation?

Don’t claim to understand my pain! 
I refuse your pity
I have only impotent rage

This is a series composed of art and what I call micro-verse. I attempt to augment the art through words written spontaneously to match that art. Micro-verse is meant to take you to a deeper place of meaning within the art. If the images and words are offensive, just remember that not all art is meant to be cute. Some is meant to make you think and sometimes to even take offense.
