Gluteus Maximus
LONEY ABRAMS + JOHNNY STANISH
Mythological muscles flex in comic book characters and gods alike
Zeus verses the Hulk in 3D
Greek sculpture was so 2013
they'll say
They'll ask
Who did what
I wrote the poem or whatever that went out in the mass email
Stylized impressions
An artists' first lessons
the negative space
a fist makes
Pushed against the surface
Sculpted bodies
Pretty pottery girls discussing
various clay-bodies
High fired to last a lifetime
Decay is natural
Like work and bio on the same drop down menu
Naturally
Porus
The fabric of our lives
Is nothing but a brand
Poor us
But that's not what we're talking about here
These are layers flattened, rasterized and soaked into fibers
Stretched but not warped, hung on the wall
Gluteus Maximus
a regal sounding name
for something that rests on a toilet.
