The Market.
____________

The Market?!..

the Market is
the Number One
Killer of Our
Finest Art..

which Makes
a Whore of The
Once Creative
Heart!

You become
a mere Image..
shaped by shallow
testimonials..
and the opinions
of Thoughtless Critics...

who strip away the
delicacies of ones Soul
till nothing remains!

(but an Empty
Gimmick.)
_

If ever I cast
my poetic thoughts
before the market-place,
it shall be to SELL
the Idea that
Art is Present
in Every Woman,
Man, and Place...

while Experience
is The Paint which
shapes!

(that Ever-Living
Canvas.)
