About the Artwork

There’s no denying
I’m dying
But I’d be lying
If I said I wasn’t busy living
Forging ahead and
Forgiving
Or at least trying
Publicly I’m holy
Privately conniving
Striving
Minding my own business
Searching for the underlying
When I’m finding
With all my might
My wrongs I’m righting
That’s a fight worth fighting
All the while
Toiling
Blood boiling
Longing for belonging
My love is undying
There’s only so much sighing
And smiling
Until you catch me curled up
Crying
I don’t mind you peeking
But I do mind you prying
Something magical’s arising
My spirits ascending
Perfect timing
A moment that’s defining
I discovered it hiding
Soon to be expiring
Pretending is trending and it’s
Never ending
Like the ladders I’m climbing
The altitude is blinding
Watch me free falling
Unwinding
The confines of
My own personal
Binding
The ultimate
Untying

About the Artist — Jared Bernstein

I search in my work, whether poetry, photography or painting, the humanistic approach. My work is free flowing and raw, reminiscent of the works by Jean-Michel Basquiat. The primeval imagery and universality free me to explore my creative life without judgment.
