The Artist

He is just a face, in the crowd
His walk is thoughtful, he's under a cloud.
"Should I just do it? I'm losing time,
This is getting worse..but is it a crime?"

A scary thought, furrows his brow,
"What if I'm seen, by someone I know?"
A critical decision, at this juncture
"Maybe it'll burst, maybe a puncture!"

The time is right, he sneaks to a side
Whips it out, to hell with pride.
A great relief, he whistles a tune
"I'm not a girl, what a great boon!"

He walks away, and no one knew
He's lost again, in the milieu.
His art remains, on the wall
A wet parabola, three feet tall.

Wow, this sounds very much like Simon and Garfunkel's "A Poem on The Underground Wall" (http://www.lyricsfreak.com/s/simon-and-garfunkel/124772.html)
