Wonderworlds

What the artist seeks to incite is a shadow of insight Drawn out of the circumstance of desperation and regicide, He becomes a spokesman for an intelligent design iterating itself into the human mind He articulates the livelihood of the presence which confounds his nights, Tearing seepage in his imaginative unconscious Yielding unto the downpour of new words as unfamiliar feelings emerge Xenophobic he cannot linger, for in the twilight of his contortion The strange uniforms with hypnosis, To the knowledge that approaching is the ferryboat that is meant to take him The manifold of novelty unbounded in telling Would he surpass the mirage of his peers’ regrets for his sanity, The man will bring forth a new reality What is worn Is spoken as a token of return To what is felt beyond Worn to transcend the alarm

I will note, "He" is a generalization for all people-it would be fruitless to assume men have the larger role in creating art, in fact hardly at times.

thanks, sometimes I find I am indeed motivated by fear, because once I've overcome the prejudgment I can come back and have something to say. Wouldn't you agree?
