Perfection is just a word beginning with P

Perfection is just a word beginning with P
Could a falling star be the birth of 1 Tree?
Why is the rain so wet?
Dry as pure ice
Would a white elephant jump on a chair?
After seeing that church mouse
Is having an office on the 1000th floor
Just a longer walk home
Did that step on the moon?
Turn the dog away from the bone
Will the eye for an eye be the birds and bees?
Pulling teeth for teeth, even more teeth for teeth "oh"” please”
"Oh" “please”
"Oh" “perfection please”
"Oh no" “please perfection”
"oh god” 2 snowflakes the same
Perfection looked left then right
Perfection looked up then down
Perfection throw away its mandate in disbelief
Finally understanding perfection is just a word beginning with P

This poem is for all artists, there is no other snow flake like "U"

It has to be this way.

A love has to be cherished
Protected with truth
In long corridors of fearful doors
Artisticless beleaguered scaredy Kats gather
Hiding the keys to freedom
It has to be this way
My friend
My art
My pain has no will to harm
The big call heals that winning grin
For I u we
Art please don’t go
Life smiles saying hello
Grow north
Fly south
Challenge east
Go west
Its yesterdays shambling that is wasting time.

Ha, I disagree with your heading. Is your art crap? Then why bother to share your sh#t? I read and write to feel human
If that is a crap, then you are reading and writing awry!
And what is Art?
You have missed so much if you think it is crap and made from crap

Are you an artist or just judgemental? The concept of "all art is crap all crap is art" is just that, people’s opinion. I have no rights as the artist after I paint a picture or sculpt or draw with light which ends up becoming a 10ft long digital image, or a poem or a book.....the art as I believe must stand by its own rights as art, so if the onlooker or reader thinks the art is crap, so be it, or the onlooker thinks a house brick next to a toilet bowl surrounded by human waste is art so be it. The onlooker has the right to their opinion not the artist, I cannot put a Picasso cubist concept painting any higher than a child’s drawing of a house with the sun in one corner, can you? But that is just my opinion....maybe as a suggestion you could think outside the box of opinionated self-righteousness and enjoy life, art is just full "perfection is a word beginning with "P""

SLIP KNOT



Slip knot snaps shut
Life line fights
Gasps, fades, tis gone.

The needle smiles
As the wood chip falls
To increase the impending bonfire!

Shaken yet not slurred

Beat me historically
Blood words inked repeatedly
Knowledge hand-me-down’s embracing
Freebee’s paying for everything
Sting-a-ling swingers
Wallflower coupon expired today
Crossfire crossroads doubled crossers
One less mouth fed
Losing interest in freedom
Spilling milk over nothing then crying
Wisdom found enlightenment confusingly ordinary
Flying blindly into blinding light
Hearing it seen shouting silence
Walking the walk quite legless.
