I never got into it that much
truth be told.
It’s all subjective anyway.
Some aren’t even trying,
just splash a bucket of mixed-up paints
onto a canvas & call it a day.
But the ones with actual aptitude
keep it alive; their passion for their craft is
what makes it all worthwhile & they are the ones
who will continue provoking thoughts long after
the rest of us have come & gone.
Maybe that’s all it can do but
then again
maybe that’s all it needs to do.
Does it work that way with those of us who splash words onto the page, too? Appreciated your fresh ideas!
