Catharsis

Catharsis

You’re my favorite artist
With your magical touch
A petrified leaf becomes a lustrous forest
You speak words that cannot be fathomed by shallow linguists

Your works are filled with overwhelming emotions
Poured out on a plain and boring piece of caricature
It’s a wonderful chaos – a series of explosions
Breaking the mundane and giving birth to a glamorous picture

Your feelings invoke power
You can either bend or destroy existing realities
And at the same time create beauty out of ashes and powder
You are a threat to banalities

You are God’s masterpiece
Because of you dilettantes like me exist
You make me smile, knowing there’s more to life than what it is
Because of your catharsis

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
