Period of Grace

Poem written by curator Charlie Caldecott to provide an axis for artists showing:

'PERIOD OF GRACE'

Ain't no disgrace
To want another place
We're not all in the same race

Do we have to race?
We might want to displace
To show our true face

And rest

Shove up the barriers
Against rapidity
And increasing morbidity
To go at a snails pace

Enter a place of stasis
To evaluate our true metastasis
To undergo a metamorphosis, not chrysalis
But catalyst
Back to the past
Peace at last
No need to fast

No need of ballast
No need of phallus
No need for lingum or yoni
What a load of baloney
No need of signs
Or ulterior designs
No need for need

grasping, climbing, scrambling, speeding
feeding, stuffing, rushing, lushing
driving, conniving, just surviving
needing needng needing

Just be
And the above will all come for free
