The rich determine

The art mind -

Sponsoring

What traps the masses

To believe what 

is "sublime".

Often artists express

The unlying distress

caused by those 

who oppress.

Galleries Collect  

artists maladies,

And the academia

pretend to 

understand 

deep tragedies

and artistic strategies, 

Making it sound 

scholarly,

using bombastic

vocabulary

To marginalize

The citizenry.

Art is the ability

to translate imagination

Into illustration

That can create

an illusion

of thoughts

in delusion,

When artists

are in confusion

of the reality,

for lack of spirituality.

Art in contemporary,

western academy,

Presents distorted

souls in agony

While eastern 

artistic expression

is not captured 

on canvas impressions,

But rather in life's

Living in satisfaction.

The difference -

Belief and Guidance 

from the Divine

as opposed

to spiritual decline

Reflected in

Western disturbed 

human baseline

presented in

Defined form and line.
