Art Is....

Art is the very heart of my soul
My beginning, my end
My prosperity and my sin
Art is my culture, my life
Where my joy lives
Where the devil is behind me
Art is my passion
Art is my pain
Yes, art is indeed my middle name
Art is the one
Art is the only 
Art lives that I may live
Reincarnated as love
Art is manifested
In my mind, the Lord blessed it
I didn’t even know I possessed it
I’ve protested and confessed it 
My pure investment
In this gift resurrected
So I’m sure you’ve guessed it
That art is my all in all
So prepare for the unexpected
