A Work of Art

beyond the brushstrokes
that everyone lauds

and the shading
that garners applause

exists the artist who
has always felt lost

//

producing ever an
award-winning portrait

and striving for a
chorus of “gorgeous”

the bond between Art
and Purpose: distorted

//

she just wants others
to know her name

she uses dark colors
to hide her shame

is it fair that prominence
is her endgame?

Just A Thought

i feel like there are a lot of issues that could be solved if people stopped believing that they were in some way “better” than others

(i don’t mean “better” at like school or at filing taxes or at like shooting 3 pointers etc)

i mean like to this day, there are people who believe themselves to be fundamentally superior to others which is so silly

im no scientist but we’re all composed of the same stuff (yes, that’s a technical term) so what exactly is the point of being egotistical

i just want to be in a world where people can love and be loved and where differences are embraced and catered to

that is all
