She was my heart,

my lungs,

my vigour,

my life.

I left.

A ghost remains.

In simple words, what is art?
Profile avatar image for jackofhats
jackofhats in Poetry & Free Verse

What is art?

Not one person knows,

but perhaps every person knows?

Ask enough people,

hear as many of their answers, and you'll find that

art is everything.

Head rush:

Knees weak; hands pale

Gravity intensifies:

my face drains; my chest sinks

Weight

Friction

Tearing

Finality

You cannot give what you don't have,

But you won't keep what you don't give,

and take-backs aren't allowed, either.

I will keep my word; I give you my word.

The weapon
Profile avatar image for jackofhats
jackofhats in Poetry & Free Verse

A gun is a hunter's companion,

but only in a hunter's hands.

Love is a lover's companion,

but only in a lover's hands;

in anything else,

they are no different.

It is

what it is;

don't mistake my cognizance

for complacency
