Dissolute Monster

Photo/Poem 1 Minute 
 
 Dissolute Monster
 on display,
 bells begin to buzz
 
 with masochistic eagerness
 warns you of
      debased currency,
      flamboyant connoisseur of ironic despair
      manufactured felt emotions
      readymade in America,
 
 furious folly of these times.
 
 This mammoth antiseptic bath cleanses
 a distaste for the reverential attitudes 
 towards the special nature of the artist
 
 A purity of expression
 of frustration and anger
 with games, masks, and buffoonery.
