Reality check

by DarkLight   May 28, 2014


What is art?
It's speaking from the heart,
the only language which make skinny people feel fat
a reason why curiosity killed a cat.
It equalizes the first and the last,
blessed and the cursed.
Speaks of the future and takes lessons from the past.
Art is painting a dream for those who can't sleep.
Holding a floater for those who can't swim.
Art is the light for those in the dark,
Vim for those unclean.
It is the feeling of the unseen
Art is for the last and those who win,
Art is the beauty that holds all the poets together.

    Art in any form whether it is painting, pottery etc it does speak from the heart just like poetry. Each form is using a unique way to express an artist's feelings. Liked this piece :)
