Makeshift Art


a makeshift room in a makeshift house

falls short of expectations that were

made by makeshift inhabitants trying to

escape a makeshift world...  one wrong

word and the thought police will take

you to their makeshift cells in the

basement of their makeshift stations;

the bottom drops out of the makeshift

sky and rain mixed with sleet and snow

falls on the makeshift ground...  all the

wild animals hide in their makeshift

caves looking out at the craziness of

the makeshift society that tries to hunt

them down every spring...  a notorious

groundhog sees his makeshift shadow

and returns to the cabin in which he

shares with his makeshift landlord...

the rest of us wonder who the artist

was who came up with all these so

unusual ideas and then decided to

put them down on canvas for all

to see and feast their eyes upon.
