I believe, in my Heart of Hearts,
that Art is nothing without Sacrifice
So, at some point Everything must be Forfeit to Chance
but that is not to say,
that Art is dependant on Accidents
Accidents only occur in paradigms of Morality,
and Art must always seek to defy Present Human Principles
What I’m saying is that a Work’s Artist is free of Guilt
the Art is a song all it’s own
It would be foolish for our Artists to Assume
they can Predict their own Future,
let alone the Future of their work
And doubly unwise to say among millions of Casual Observers
a Consensus can be drawn up of Intentions lost,
rendered useless after one Fleeting Moment
At some point in Art’s Conception,
the Artist’s hand Slips
and it doesn’t mean a thing
its not for anybody
it’s handed over to the Atmosphere
If that Artist holds on to that Singular Moment
it’s Robbed of its Liberty
Roasted under the Microscope
Sanctioned off and tossed Aside
Despite this,
the Desire to Possess cannot simply be Rationalized Away
There is plenty of Evidence of Art’s Dependence on Autonomy
Everywhere you look, there is Expression
in the holes, there is Art
Nobody has any idea who Anybody is
I believe we’re not the Shit we put on the Internet
We’re barely involved in the process
No Second Guesses
there are no Phases
Every Artist runs alongside their Work
Only the Phonies try to steer from the Rear

ReplyDeletedoes not assume the failure to drip
nor reduce the likelihood
of sticky fingers
the process and the result
are oft done for
dissimilar intents
and to
dissimilar ends
the phase is
but a wheel's cogs
and the watch is
but worn.
the time is
what we call it
and the moment
is what's born.
Were only an Oft apart
