Haiku Handful #7

~Poetry~

Another Day At The Park

Hot pink and rotted
Dilapidated it falls
Slowly down to rest

Many questions posed
Though I desire one answer
Why poop on the wall?

Art is subjective
Even if it is just shit
Some eyes see beauty

Humans are garbage
Indeed our great legacy
It will outlive all

Garbage in the trash
Art though? Mayhaps so
Depends on abstract

Thank You For Reading

  1. The image reminds me of a nightmare cleanup I had to help with in my old job… 😅 It definitely didn’t feel like artwork at the time.

    1. I worked two summers for a provincial park in northern Saskatchewan. This type of mess was a daily occurrence, and on really bad days it would be on the floor or occasionally on the walls. Not sure why the pants got left behind though.
      I do agree at the time I thought it was horrible, because of course it was, but an image of that terror might be close to art?

      1. Daily! My condolences, once was nightmare enough. I’m not sure why, either, but I sure hope they had another pair… 😅

        If art is meant to convey emotions, this definitely does. Much preferred to the real thing!

      2. I heard once upon a time, the quickest way to growth is doing things you don’t like doing. I am not sure if that’s true, but one certainly had to humble themselves to do that work.

        I guess disgust is an emotion. lol
