My Idea of Good Art

My Idea of Good Art By Elton Camp I dislike a lot of art that I see But know others may disagree Sloppy color applied nilly-willy Then call it art, to me, seems silly A woman’s face with three eyes Some modern artist often tries Her body is like some kid composed For from her chest grows her toes To some who look, it’s just great That type art, I most intensely hate Is the painter just being funny Taking gullible people’s money? Artist, paint what you actually see To get praise from a hick like me
