Art is everyhwere now. Not in some stuffy museum that's closed on Sunday and open on Monday. A place where you have to be quiet and polite and not touch. Know who did the work and when. Their pretty lives. Their petty lives. What body part they cut with knives. It's you and I and we're naked running on a carpet of clover. The beautiful, warm, wind touching us gently. No - More - Shame. We're painting canvasses with the berries that fall off trees. And no one is protecting that Van Gogh painting because it's in a gallery on Mars which is only hop, skip and a jump for beings who fly swiftly and can drink sulfuric acid right out the cup without batting an eye. And art is everywhere now. And it is more beautiful too. Because it is worth rescuing and saving. And we are running naked on a clover carpet. No - More - Shame. And it is more beautiful to forget than remember. You forgot about longevity when you learned to fly. And I forgot about sorrow when I couldn't remember how long ago I cried. I got something and gave something and then forgot what the problem was. Because the market or worldliness fell on that black day and no one jumped out of windows unless they wanted to laugh directly at the ground which they swerved to avoid as the sky lifted them ever upward. And art is everywhere now. And it is so much more beautiful to forget than remember. |

I can't help not saying I liked that a great deal and hope you make millions of it in a hugely famous song someday. so what's it going to be then, eh? |

I thought this was actually quite beautiful. Not too sure about repetition of no-more-shame though but the first poem I've read today that really moved me :-) |
