The Constant Critic
Enough already!
my less critical self shouts
at the perfectionist me
Why not just enjoy?
But the perspective is wrong
they are giants
in a Lilliputian world
So could you do better?
Of course I can
And the colors do not work
But the hands are awesome
So he should just paint hands.
He was a writer and a violinist
I hope he was better at that
Would not be bad if he took the people out
Or cropped at the feet.
He was famous at painting
In Russia
Their literature is strange too
And their music.
Enough already!
You will ruin it for everyone.
Everyone likes this?
I think not.
Just shut up!
