The Artist
Silence
as you stare into a realm of enlightenment.
Hush
and harken to the soft hum lingering overhead.
See
the jaded green stage illuminating underneath rows of intellectual
bodies.
Hear
the faint vocals of past artists flicker in between rows of
knowledge.
Glance
in the direction of a steady stream of syllables emerging amidst famous minds
discussing their independent masterpieces.
Watch
as scores of words are hurled in a bandy across each layer of dissatisfied
customers trying to out-perform each other.
Listen
to the myriad of masterminds whose preserved states retire among treasure
troves of bound acquaintances.
Read
the famous accounts of the geniuses who have cognitively captivated the
audience’s attention.
Absorb
into your thirsty mind the breath of wisdom that looms overhead
Create
a unique work of honorable mention and individual satisfaction based on
inspiration.
Reflect
upon the masterpiece that has unfolded before your eyes.
Remodel
the incongruous fragments and dead ends that, like a split hair, cause a less
than satisfying image.
Rebuild
that unstable foundation with stronger scaffolding whose flexibility allows you to
remold the piece at will.
Read
the product of reconstruction like a constant work-in-progress.
