PRIME BANKSY, OR NOT

– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –   

Is it art, political statement, or vandalism? Is it even a "real" Banksy? Is it even a "real" story? Debate continues. One thing we know for sure, it really is a representation of a bifurcated hairy scrotum framing the staid and proper doorway of Number 10 Downing street thus presenting it to an amused world as a seven foot penis.

This scrotum/penis defacement isn't on a New York City subway poster but the spirit is deeply in tune with the sentiment of NYD. New York gets the meaning of a big dingus in a meaningful place, The Poke gets it, and now in a manner of speaking No. 10 Downing Street gets it too.

Our thanks go out to this unknown street/photoshop artist, even if the story is fake the feeling is real. Take a look at the article posted by The Poke for more details.
