The power of true art

Art said to be most masterful on any dark surface
Cave paintings outstrip more than this
Raw power in their primitive hues
Blazes out in what they choose
Leaving more refined images less than equal
To the more potent primeval  prequel
It is how they lived and how they died
We witness true ,tested and tried.

What more of a true artist can we ask
than that she will never reality mask.
