I am for an art that
provokes + confuses
art that is hidden
found by few
golden flecks of an apple skin
golden freckles of human skin
glisten of rain
shadows on a wall
transient
invisible
I am for an art that
is uncomfortable + unexpected
art that silently screams
art that compels you to see
as if you'd never seen before
art that makes a portrait
not a person but a story
art that turns a shape into
an idea and a color into
a fairy-tale
I am for an art that
makes you sigh + reflect
art that roams the countryside
purposeless ambivalent
yet full of meaning
redeemed and saved
from destruction
given life and a new voice
art that whispers the thoughts
we didn't know we had
I am for art.

(this just makes me think...how do we tell the story?)

(this resounds with me/ I feel like art is the gateway to so many things)
