Art Appreciation
 
Chalk art on a slanted driveway.
A conglomeration of raindrops
destroys what they came to see.

Interesting image with equally interesting use of words.
I'm unsure if it relates to any actual specific event or happening.
The whole idea of creating chalk art on a slope seems to be set up knowing the inevitable consequences in time. Like building a sand castle I suppose. Slanted is very specific when sloping would work in a physical sense, so I take 'slanted' as biased or predjudice perhaps. 'Conglomeration' is a wonderful sounding word, but it always puts me in mind of business, company mergers and the like. With all this in mind there are many possible interpretations that I can see with this poem, which is a good thing, I think.
The other thing that it did put me in mind of is when Buddhists make mandalas, sometimes they make them out of different coloured sand and then when it's complete at the end of the day they pour it out into a river. Art for art's sake.

Thanks for the read,
