am i doing my part
if we want to change culture
the best way is to create more of it is this why then i paint
and seek others who paint
and make efforts to uplevel this painting
and in ways that hold more truth
and sic authenticity
is this the doing my part nothing to do with
protests
social rants
fists held high
anger
brush in hand
imploring those who want
to do the same
a consciousness to that is mine
that wont let me forget what i came to know
as much as i’d like to fall into inertia
to yours
to theirs
to ours
all
is this the response to our times call
i am doing my part
