Diagnostics
“Diagnostics”
(20”x16”; Acrylic on Canvas)
You call me crazy
but you fail to acknowledge what you’ve done
You call me crazy
but you played a dirty game and won
and continue to play
and delay
progress that would sway or keep at bay
my achievement
You call me crazy
I almost believed it
For a time I did.
Til I decided
To believe my mind instead
to relieve my mind, Im dead
in your eyes
in your life
in your cohesive story
narrative
Idek what you would call it
There once was a line that you dont cross
And you crossed it
You call me crazy
To maintain hegemony over language
To control economics
To prevent my actualization
and I transcend
I put floors above ceilings
and I am
