[Newspoetry] Guernica cover-up

[Robert Porter]

Continuing the policy of covering up potentially embarassing artwork,  the 
tapestry reproduction of Picasso's 'Guernica', which resides at the UN, 
was draped with a cloth during Colin Powell's presentation today:

Powell, as if to compensate, displayed some well-rendered 
computer-generated pictures of 'Mobile Chemical Weapons Plants'.

Not exactly Cubism, but definitely verging on the surreal.


Robert Porter, as is.
