Painting On The Wall

Painting On The Wall

I saw a painting on the wall
The most terrible piece I've ever seen
It was unfashion and asymmetrical
Unsatisfactory, ungracious, and unpleasin`
People had come and saw this horrible
Piece and they left with grumbling chin
While pitied the most terrible piece of all
That can neither connect nor pleasin`
Their desire for a perfect image of the soul
Then suddenly I realized that it has been
A painting of the self-important Poet`s soul
And then I ran, I ran, and oh I ran
I sobbed, I sobbed, and oh I sobbed
God, I did too many flaws in my life
I never did anything in the correct way
I am gaumless and purblind
I`ve come nowhere all these years
Reshape me oh Lord, reshape me
I need little more than grace right now
Beat me, slash me, bruise me
And we did see a painting on the wall
Truly, the most terrible piece we have seen.
