A short film by Anthony Panecasio based on and including my poem "GRAFFITI"

www.youtube.com/watch

Skull and crossbones

 

Black and heinous

 

Drawn with all of the skill of a six year old

 

You paint your graffiti in your crude and ignorant hand

 

Like the paid vandals of ancient Rome

 

Spreading harmful lies throughout the land

 

Galling the gullible and playing politicians

 

 

 

Prostituting your integrity for fool’s gold

 

Come out into the light of day

 

Show your face and back up what you say

 

You are playing a dangerous game

 

Because though your enemy lives far away

 

His ally is your next door neighbor

 

And the ally owes your enemy a favor
