Paint Me Down
By BuffaloBill
21 November 2006
 I don't know about you, but I can't paint or draw to save my life. I'm jealous of people who can, but I've realised that I'll never be an artist.

If a picture paints a thousand words

Then why can’t I paint you?

Cos I’ve two left hands and half a brain

And colour blindness, too.

 
I’d make Picasso’s stuff look real

And Pollock’s stuff look sane.

If I painted, drew or sculpted you

We’d never speak again.

Ah but at least you can create in other ways!  
 
Very good.

Enjoyed this. Raised a smile. Write a thousand words if you can't paint them.
