Madness to the Method
In chaos spun, a hidden pattern lies,
A dizzying dance where reason seems to flee,
The artist's hand, where wild invention flies,
Finds form in depths the sane refuse to see.
A fractured mirror, showing truth askew,
Reflects a world both vibrant and forlorn,
Each brushstroke born of visions fresh and new,
Though whispered sanity might seem outworn.
The actor's trance, a soul possessed by role,
Walks tightrope thin 'tween self and what he feigns,
A calculated loss of all control,
To plumb the human heart's ecstatic pains.
So from the storm, a masterpiece takes hold,
A method born of stories to be told.
