Gentleman Of The Art

Gentleman Of The Art

I,聽
Who to many in my many聽
Encounters, have only ever appeared聽
To be a mystery

A fracturing of the glass from within聽
And yet still I toil聽
To rise from this mortal coil
In a prophetic yet poetic way

To understand and to be understood
To liberate and yet still to be liberated聽
I breathe with the breath of enigma

A symbol to the droves of lost souls聽
Whose...company composed聽
Of freaks and poets and artists
May find themselves estranged聽
On the shores of obscurity聽
From which heaven still begs a heartbeat...
Well聽I say
Trod on good poet (or artist or freak)

Your art is your pacemaker

"To understand and to be understood
To liberate and yet still to be liberated"

This was classic, genuine and doesn't ask to be appreciated. I think that in order to lead other's you definitely have to be a keen observer and able to articulate what you see clear enough to make a sound judgement. Great job my friend.聽

I agree, you must be of sound mind to be a leader. If not you become blind only fated to lead the blind. Blesses, my brother.聽
