I asked my Sistah Motion to give me a piece of poetry that I can post on the site and she obliged and gave me this Fresh piece encapsulating Graffiti. ~ Eklipz

Graf

An original poem by Motion

"You can’t catch it
just snatches in frames that
fly past windows inscripted in insidious
crevices and corners
scrawled on concrete slabs
of underpass

hush
eyes peeled to feel the pressure
of fingers pressed on spray can tips
aerated shades grow bold in phases
stage impromptu shows at the
sides of the road

Burns lay in wait on lost walls
for the next eyes tomorrow
which too will wonder why
these spaces found significance in the
eyes of midnite writers
scribes who
spray legacies of heiro’s
on the edge of city scapes

they’ll outlast our past
when our last breath escapes
for these dwellers create
carved calligraphies
and scripts on bricks
tattooed tags stain train’s skin
impromptu impressions
impressive dimension
destination, eternity
so lost walls become
heaven"
