A Portrait of the Artist in Bank Statements

Fifty years of bank statements
annotated
a portrait of the artist
each debit credit overdraft
a decision about
time freedom creativity
the dream of community
longing for wild nature
the mad grieving
of its disappearance
each debit credit overdraft
a tale of love rage recovery
of the obliterated self
big numbers never reached
that's ok he thinks


(raccoon by Virginia Warwick)
