The Artist

Being creative reveals the designs you have created for your life.  Don't change them for anyone.

Painting a picture, I say, helps keeps the fears away.

Fears of failure, fears of making a mistake...

Why, why change the feelings of fault?

My fault, I say, smudging paint onto the canvas,

Dragging it to fill the expanse,

The expanse of color, tone, shade.

Pursuing my craft to modify my emotions,

I appeared to sketch a sequence of passion, 

Of whom or what, I'm not sure.

I'm following this sequence relentlessly and

To my painting, I offer spirits of happiness and joy.
