Infa Riot

here the stencil art seems
more restrained or better
placed (my favourite so far
a do the right thing image:

chuck swastikas in the bin
but then there’s the rifles
silhouetted soldier slogans
like ‘make your own world’

these meanings are clear: &
all for a spray can or stains
graffiti’s private symbols i’m
in no position to appreciate

or decipher like city streets
off the main thoroughfares
their messages become tawdry
old worn-out & finally disused
