"A life lived for art is never
a life wasted,"
that's what Macklemore
and Ryan Lewis
told us.
Those of us in recovery
need this to be true.
Those of us?
--all of us--
because we are all artists,
placing pieces of our broken
lives into a mosaic,
a cathedral floor frieze,
something we build
to walk on, a
snapshot of past agonies
and beautiful memories
that lifts us out of
the ***** Earth.
A true artist manufactures
their own hope.
