"Man Reduced To A Void" Acrylic on Cardboard

Man Reduced To A Void (02.06)

I have become reduced to minimum necessity
Do I need the stomach? (To forge starvation)
Do I need the tongue? The nose?
For the roses of my illusion!
Do I need illusion? To deceive the stomach? (I reclaim function and sterility)
I do not have the appetite to intoxicate the gaze
I have reduced my devices to reveal the void
I do not need hands... (I renounce the grasp)
They may navigate (topographical mirages)
They attach... (and hold to) obstacles of diversion
I do not need legs... to traverse inside
I do not need feet... to embed nostalgia (I pass through)
I do not need to hear... illusions in a vacuum
I do not need touch... without a neurology
I have divided man into the singularity
By reducing man through plurality...
Now!
I will reduce the void

Thanks! I'm glad it garnered your continual viewing... I think the most one can hope for from their creations (other than the process of creation itself) is such concentrated interest or an image one can't forget. Thanks for the support!

Thanks! I like working on cardboard too... unfortunately its a very thirsty surface. It absorbs the paint much more than any other surface I've worked on.

Yeah, the words are mine... not necessarily lyrics but who knows? haha
