This past weekend we stopped by Blum & Poe for the opening of Takashi Murakami’s latest solo exhibition “Arhat”, and what we saw was a fantastic series of new paintings and sculptures that remind us of the playful nature of the Japanese artist’s work. Definitely a must see if you are in the Los Angeles area.

A lesson of Love

I understand I’m not perfect. I trip over everything, sing like a dying duck, and have a weird obsession with sloths. I look 16 and can’t dance to save my life; but my biggest problem is that I’ll never be her. 

You made that very clear.

My worth became lost under those sheets, and like a knock off baseball card, I was discarded. I tried to live up to an impossible standard, and even if I had surpassed in every category, I would still never be the one you cherish.

You used me, ignored me, and left me as easily as you had entered my life. Now I’m nursing a broken heart with any substance that will make me forget my name for a night, because no matter what I do, I will never be her.

And if I could rewind my life to the first time I met you, I would turn the other cheek and walk away.

Because I would be a happier person without the memory of you.

I’m always a replacement, never an original.
