Mag 106 -- ditto

photo credit: Bob Adelman (Warhol at NYC Grocery Store) 1965


He was an original they say
Who certainly did things his way
Did he have a great itch
To be famous and rich?
Was his art unique or cliche?

Perhaps one day near the grotto
He overheard talk voce sotto
One thought him discerning
Found his painting secerning
The others cried, Ditto ditto!

He thought: they love me they said so
I will work for the masses ergo
One thing at a time
And all in a line
Beginning with this Campbell's Tomato.

  4. Brian~ Nothing like a cuppa revolution!

    izzy~ Why, yes I did. :)

    Dianne~ Thank you for the visit and kind comment. I love that you read it out loud!

    Rob-bear~ I agree with you 100% about the new word verification system. I had not visited many blogs in the last two weeks, but last night caught up on some...and the ones with word verification were real eye-benders. I will go to the Google forum groups and see if there is a discussion about this topic (I bet there will be) and if not I will lodge a complaint. grrrrr.

BEGINNING IN 2014 I will reply to only occasional comments here, while appreciating every visit and all comments! My reason is to enable me to utilize that time to read and comment on your blog posts instead! If/when I get more organized I may later return to replying to comments here, but one of my New Years resolutions is to spend more time at your sites: reading, enjoying, learning! Thank you for understanding.

If your blog is associated with a Google+ account, I may not be able to visit you from your namelink. I do not wish to join Google+ and the site sometimes requires that I do so in order to read/comment on posts there.
