An artist (The ABC Poem)

An artist, Bleeding his heart into the canvas Carefully planning his masterpiece Dutifully paying attention to every detail. Emotionally drained, Forced to finish his work Grueling over an uninviting crowd Helpless to the impending backlash Inspired, the artist continues Just to prove his critics wrong Knowing that his work will be amazing Loving himself even more Meticulously painting his beautiful image Never letting stamina get to him Opening his mind to a grand illusion Presented to him by an transcendent figure Questioning if what he saw was true Reveling in the moment of it all Slowly, the artist comes to a finish Trapping the moment inside of his easel Unveiling to the crowd was his final test Vociferously, he explained his masterpiece When all of a sudden, the artist begins to run Xenophobia had stricken him You now know why most artists are obscure. Zealous fans always ruin everything.
