I didn't want to post that one but finally I'm posting it...

It's just a very rough idea quickly realized. The group says "no" but the individual says "yes"... This is a contradiction I have often noticed in human societies, especially in Belgium!

I'm currently working on some more serious calligraphy, coming soon on Deviant Art!

undecided

A poem by Katie Gabrielle

Undecided
The crowd is proud
The crowd is loud
The crowd says "No!"
To friend and foe
I stand between
Of might and unseen
What's right and wrong
Debate sing song
To push away
A chance to stay
An idea born
To laugh or scorn
Reject or see
What will, shall be
One "Yes" is spoken
One voice has broken
The silence still
Pay up the bill
One "Maybe" please
The crowd appease
"Yes", "No", "Maybe"
Undecided
Crowd
Divided

first off its such a cute little idea. in many social societies there are such issues... one that comes to mind is the election of Al Gore and George W Bush, where the society chose Al Gore, while George W Bush was put into office. i'm not to fimilar with belguim politics or society but im sure similar things have happened. over all, its such a simplistic image but it says so much more. the classic eye trick is my favorite part ( like writing 'green' in red letters) and that the 'maybe' is just chilling over there, thinking to its self 'well, what am i supposed to do'. this is wonderful Mr. Heine and i hope to see more wonderful pieces to look at and love.

It makes me think of someone telling you to do drugs, they keep saying yes, but you hold the steady and final NO.
