Moments with Oneself
‘They liked it,
but demanded
‘More openness
in my art
‘Before I am
eligible to be displayed!’
An artist with
heavy heart
Closed his eyes,
thought and prayed.
‘You will do.’
He commanded
To his soul in
dilemma and dismay.
A horrible cry
of silence spread…
Accepted the
dejected, having no other way
But the only
choice for bread.
Dead artist
cannot produce art!
