Illegitimate Artist Child

Being an artist. What does she see? Really? Is she part of her dreams? Or did DNA take place in her believing? Is she an original piece? Or just a hodge podge mess of family history? You tell me. What makes her artistry real? Is she really a feeling creative being? Or just a product of random desire taking? A young man in back of his car. Looking for sex. In a young girls sickness. Not looking beyond. What they've created. Wanting with an unabashed nakedness. An artist child. Ashamed of her making. Living in the world. That judges the taking.
