Art is opinion masquerading as truth. When I draw a city, I am drawing the city of my dreams, just as the city that is does not exist. Putting policy into words in the hopes of having yourself heard is not the point of the philosopher, and should not be the end of the penman. When I attempt to make the world see, I manufacture my enemy. We should seek instead to illuminate gracefully, to speak the words beyond the void of flesh, and to touch emotions that swim with depth It will get us nowhere to make art political, of which it is propaganda and employed many an artist in the past; whose dreams of good deeds became hung in a museum for all the wrong reasons, leaving a remnant of an unforseen circumstance hanging dry on an empty tour-guide phonecall Descriptive yet lies Argue the dialectic of truth than the present purfume of lies that is fumigated from the salivary discharge of a cetaceous yearning of ********** of thought, that leftover dream of God That all things should be the same, that all minds should think that way-- if they were, we'd be done with the experiment.
