i've been told to never apologize for my art
because art is expression
and expression shouldn't be judged
but i have to apologize for my "art"
because my art is poetry about your cruelty
poetry about my heartbreak
and my drawings are morbid
sketches of crying old men
in the slums of a dark city
or eyes with crow's feet shedding tears
sculptures of distorted faces
with frowns
and red pupils
I'm sorry for digging holes in the sand
rather than building castles
I'm sorry for throwing scripture on the ground
because to me the scripture may as well be dog shit
i've been told to never apologize for my art
but when i think about it
everything that everyone does
is an art form
i will not apologize for my art
if my art is my life
because I AM NOT SORRY
