This piece started after a video came out online bashing an unfinished piece of street art. 300k plus views, 1000s of comments, and over 10k likes. The blacked out left side is where the comments all used to be written out. Now they have become smoke from the fireplace below. Fuel. The black walls creating my house used to be where all the positive comments were, friends and thinkers unwilling to join mob mentality. Positivity is what makes the house my character lives in. I cried after reading everything In the comments, so much hate from people I never knew. Made me sick. Made me question everything, and I'm glad. The teardrop causes the plant in the pot below to grow.

This piece started the same day Charlie Kirk was assassinated. You'll see a creature with the money on his head controlling the puppet gun man. Charlie has the American flag in his mouth. Next to him another character holding a gun - also an American flag. In the floor you'll see characters in each tile. Then bigger of the same kind looming in the building. A small lizard walks by carrying pencils. An iPad in military time, "13:00." A video I watched of Palestinian kids fighting for food. All recorded. Little guys with opposing views sit - plugged in listening and watching. I'm slapping away a pen to the left with the same red empty stomach. The truth is complicated and simple - George Washington is signing the other blue paper while a guy hands him Ketamine. Someone I know does a lot. George Washingtons entire head is a stain that floats up until you reach the top layer. Half people in harmony and half fighting. Some trees bear coconuts and some don't. The creature holds another moon in his mouth.

"Stained Wallflower,"

Because I feel sometimes I've watched - or we've watched with not enough action - but who knows. Try your best, be your best, and start to create/expand a world you'd like to live in too. Inspire.

​

I think this is all one can hope for.
