Re-Imagine

Inspired by the painting Re-Imagine by Yuumei

With my brush in hand

I will re-paint this world

plagued with black suits and concrete greys,

turn the billowing streams of smog into cotton candy clouds,

bring azure back to the sky

and dab waves of Cherry Blossoms and Dahlias

across this bleak canvas.

I will power these hives of people with a towering forest of white windmills

and fields of shining cobalt solar panels

so I stand atop

this building,

a concrete prism

seventy-two people call home,

with my easel in front of me

and my palette at my side,

and as this land grows duller by the day,

my art will be a rallying cry

to Re-Imagine this world in a rainbow of

revolution
