DEATH
DEATH THE CANNIEST CAREER MOVE
James Dean Cobain Joplin Morrison Basquiat
There is even a term Basquiatiana His blackness
didn’t hurt says the Globe & Mail Nor did his
wild-child urban noble savage mystique a wild pet
for the recently cultivated white said one art critic
And though he lived on the street for a while he was in fact
an upper middle class private school child whose father drove
a Mercedes He has 2000 sq. ft. at the A.G.O. this Spring Also
in the building are the photos of Henryk Ross Lodz Ghetto:
dead bodies on the ground children in carts being carted to camps
& the man who saved the Torah!
Notice the yellow stars sewn onto chests & backs the better to
identify you Jew especially when running Let us unite these 2
artist’s works One a visible minority the other invisible Let us
place a yellow star on the forehead of Basquiat’s self-portrait
Black dreads white slits for eyes +the star of David
