stranger danger

7 May

I’m selling 5 paintings by my brother Siopao Paredes and that means if you get it directly from me, you’re gonna get it for a low price! These are original paintings for the price of art prints. Art prints are multiple of the same piece created through the a printmaking technique. An original paintings is one of a kind and when you purchase such, you purchase the only one in existence.

My brother mentions that these were supposed to be part of an art Event but I asked to keep and distribute it myself.

Budhi

we’ve had civilization’s rise,
civilization’s crumble
and the inevitable race we run
with our declining chance of wonder

chewing on words that’ve been taught,
prayers with no meaning
clinging on hopes created
to satisfy our being

philosophies debated,
as if spoken in native tongues
what has not been forgotten,
can never be undone

now throw us in the fire,
wait for skin to crawl,
speak to your master
as if you’ve seen nothing at all

so count all your senses,
I think you’ve lost one.
you’ve followed all false commandments,
you’re beaten, used, and dumb

tolerance is for the helpless,
command is for the meek,
live in skin that’s yours, not His
and question what You seek
