Who's Who on the Scrapbook Edge

WE THE PEOPLE
who draw a cartoon every day
paint a page in a healing journal
create an artist trading card collage scrapbook page tattoo prayer
CELEBRATE
vision moment dream nightmare anecdote aphorism funny sign
graffiti bumper sticker
on the back of a business card in a blog in a video
photo poem
write on a WALL
or – GASP – in a book,
yes, write right on top of the publisher's pristine page.
VANDALS every one of us who challenges
the smug pornography of perfection.
We draw where we must,
we make a mess, move on,
each page reflects the new world that we will to be,
another layer of collage on this multilayered world.


mixed-media collage by Morris Armstrong, Jr. proudly a.k.a. "Little Mo"
