Yellow man Full bodysuit Waving Flag hung half-massed Inverted; iconography Save our souls Nothing ever lasts The sound of engines overhead Desperate the birds below pray Filtered sunlight A voyeur Sepia transitions Flicker Touched with a layer of grain A stark reality broadcast Save our souls Nothing ever lasts A tickle; chill breath Psychopomp Rendezvous; a pale horse A trail of dust through empty streets An act of supplication on bloody knees Waving flags; graven image A tragic jester desperstely pleas Save our souls Nothing ever lasts

It was truly an honor to work with an artist whose art transcends the boundaries of dreams...much love to Kim Bo Yung

I was given the honor of collaborating with an artist who has inspired me recently, Kim Bo Yung. Check out our collab, 'The Boundary of Dreams', at josefdesade.com/section/5419...
