The Artist: Scott Ehrisman

What in Hell is wrong with you, boy?

All that slimy, oozing, wriggling

Stuff inside your soul ralphed out, framed,

Hung on a wall IN PUBLIC.  What

Were you thinking?  Yeah, the answer

Is already framed.  I’ve got a

Printout of that brunette with her

Cigarette and heels, but I hide

It where my wife won’t find it—I

Keep things decent.  You shouldn’t stick her

In a collage with strippers and

Put it in a gallery.  And

There: a flying pig in papier

Mache! Pork on the wing—it’s just

Wrong.  Someone should tell your mother.

  1. Hey, you’re tame.

    The Betty Paige thing just proves you’re biological and not call center qualified. I’d not hide it. A feminine woman can be hard to find were it not for art and strip clubs.
