I’m searching for an artist
Artists use broken glass
Glue it together and paint
Over the fragments.
It’s abstract, they say
They colour the fragments
With blue, green.
It’s abstract, they say.
When they say that,
The brokenness turns into expensive art.
I’m searching for an artist
To glue my brokenness
Glue the fragments together
With blue, green
I want the artist to say, “It’s abstract.”
Because when they say that,
My brokenness will turn into expensive art.
