About the Artwork

Am
I merely a number
Whose days are outnumbered
Feeling somewhat encumbered
I babbled and blundered
Crawling out of my cave
Shaking off my slumber
Stretching to get limber
In every direction I lumber
Falling from grace
Yelling timber
Somehow I’m still
Full of wonder
Stumbled and mumbled
Rambled and rumbled
Suddenly remembered
I’m a fiery flame
Not a flickering ember
Billions of people
I’m an integral member
A super duper trooper
With a wicked hot temper
Allowing you to gaze
Directly at my center
In its full splendor
Please enter and encounter
The great pretender
And surrender
Was a student
Now I’m a mentor
Draw my strength from
Down under
Let no man put me asunder
Suddenly
In my stupor
My mood got somber
The applause is all mine
Don’t even try
Stealing
My thunder

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.
