Be Somebody

Be Somebody - George Underwood (1947- )


in a perfect world of
sculpted 
creamy
mannequins

like
cloned
bone 
swimsuits

breathing

(perhaps)


there can only be 

subtle

revolution

in

chained
soul
music


This painting graces a recent album cover of the Norwegian rock band Ungdomskulen

Seven Crows

large 7 flying black capes
like living pockets of dark smog
veiling the golds and greens and watery silvered landscapes

like 7 deadly symbols
of dark souls
scavenging for
the unwary
the weak
the defenceless
the outcasts
the unprotected 
meat

and yet
when the ominous presence of 7 crows fades
no trace of
foul debris
or foul play
lingers

When waters sleep in silken cradles

When boats idle in the lilt of tides


When evening mystical tears
Weep their secrets


Wings spin the song of

Final lights
