An Artist

What is an artist to do when they feel like screaming and shouting.

 

What is he to do but write, sing or dance.

 

Somehow he, she or it must express their excess of emotion.

 

Somehow he must bring the world's attention into his and make them see a particular point in time as he does.

 

What is an artist to do when the world engulfs him and when it surrounds him to see how he observes them or their belongings.

 

The details escape his finger tips. It is impossible to fully express oneself.

 

All he does best is keep feeding this never ending thought.

 

By chasing it, he hopes to catch it and extinguish it.

 

Peace is all he desires.
