All the people in the paintings
Keep trying to catch a break.
They run,
Not wanting the attention.
Being hung in this museum
It's not their style.
You can hear them whisper,
almost shouting,
Trying to be heard.
This is a maximum sentence
In a high-security prison.
They're forgetting and
forgotten
As they live this life in
Locked-up silence.
