bizzare n abstract they weigh in life fact taggers thought through the air clung to steel canvas forms
steel ball....back an forth colours outline black with red eight foot long story told from the thoughts in his head
hue of rust strip of white pastelled thought comes to shape expressioned wave of his hand misted air yellow lands
flow of arc shots of brown turquoise blue misted black needle shaped in a line symboled scream on the left depicted thought of the loss of a friend
backwash orange purple strokes three in count sixteen dots mixed in gold snake shape lines in moss green overlaid mist a white not too much tho its bright, keeps his thoughts safe an pure of what he's not seen
behind whats ontop rounded silver three times sprayed a reflection of him one blackline years of life
a quivering shape to the right it's been tagged now on steel collaborative strokes brings a head with no face
shouldered gray hair some in form of a wisk where his mind's at been said with the shape of a Z'
twice now he's tagged this car through the years with thoughts of his past his future his tears some days he'll sit an read tags all day for each one is different with stories they tell
each tag that you see has a meaning of sorts the taggers heart thoughts pure depth of thought some distinctive in strife of a taggers dark life....
when the wig wags come down an your stuck at the tracks, think of a tagger and reflect back to these words.....

About this poem:
Taggers are very much like writers, a different style is all.
