Bottled as you will - I might become
One of these paintings,
Risk you take when you live with an artist.
So many images to choose from:
The Boggle Eyed Mao with flacid penis decoration
Communist Train Girl selling her fruits and beers
The Communist party meeting with scorpions and
Smoke haze converging the hidden mountains
The lassitudinous positioning
Of the well hung Kangaroo
Amanda Vandstone shooting her poisonous tits at us
I mean, mate, what are we to make of that?
Corporate takeover my friend.
We with our billions now control you
Fuck your paintings because we will
Rebuy them and Repaint them!
Fuck Fred Williams and Russell Drysdale
They were crap anyway
So lets make them go large
Like main screen in Fed Square
With grafitti art over the top
With audience participation
Lets deface these icons of Australian art
Oh sorry - not deface
But re-interpret
And the souls of people like McCubbin
Are yours to throw around like paper machete.
