Blind Pathos Poet Free verse

Artists Prayer

Where are all the great patrons
Throw me a hook you fishers of men


That I might be caught and eaten
by the audience beyond the footlights


That my blood be spilled on pages
and canvas in prescribed portion


Afford me the flame of arrogance
to believe that my own hand
in the fire of creation touches wonder

and maybe God himself
