LOVE Park Statue



A copy of the draft of the Poem.

LO
VE Park


Oh. How ironic.
Oh. How delusional we all must be.
In this city of Brotherly Love

LO
VE

On its pedestal, judging our every move.
Our broken...

LO
VE

There is no love.
There is no love,
on this canvas of a city
that we call Philly.

Representing LOVE
Couples in LOVE
A City in LOVE
In LOVE
With poverty and starving and murder

Holding hands smiling for the camera
Cheese! Kissing! Laughing!

Only to ignore their brother
Suffering! Shivering! Starving!

Red.
Deceiving, meaning LOVE
and Blood
Red is for the LOVE

But this red, OUR red

Red for the Blood that has been shed
Only if our LOVE
Was no longer broken into pieces but together we all could LOVE again, only then

LO
VE
