At the end of a small, no through road in the industrial area of Rosebud on Port Phillip Bay is this mural.
It faces a spare allotment and scrub.
Who would know it was there?
The mural appears to depict a Melbourne train on fire, breaking through a stream of complex, swirling graffiti.
(And Melbourne is spelt Melburn on the train.)
The mural appears to have a message - many messages.
Artist are you sad
Railroaded into demands
Do you feel broken
I tried to photograph the full extent of the mural but it was difficult.
It begins on the right, but continues a little further on the left of the photo.

What an interesting, but somehow troubling mural! Maybe just a picture of our times! Terrific capture for the day, Gemma, and the perfect words as always! Hope your week is off to a great start!

The artist let their mind run free on this mural.
This one looks a bit simular to the ones we have here. Could almost be the same artist. Who knows maybe they have contacts over the world.
Very cool piece. More than murals I love graffiti and street art. This, as they say, is "sick"
Great mural, I like this one a lot! Thanks for sharing.
It is a bit troubling - wonder what they meant?
I think it takes a special talent to read graffiti lettering. One I don't have. My best guess is that the meaning of the mural is contained in its calligraphy. I did notice that the spray paint can looks pretty angry, which could be a clue. The mural may be off the beaten path, but it's certainly intriguing. I'm glad your found it. Thank you for participating again in Monday Mural.
So, we have a badge now? Wow, thank you so much.
