Art was never replaced It was simply defaced By eyes that carry traces Of distain or disinterest Disconnection from whats best, About reading a poets chest Of words and entertaining rhymes, More to them like limes Sour use of their time, But what about the heart Where lives the truest part Of the souls love for art, They say poetry is dead Barking about value instead Bringing home some lead, Willing to scroll all night With no health or might Only circadian rhythms blighted By the content with no contentment.

Art vs Content
In the mountain forests pine Taking a day of time To grow in the sunshine, Shining bright white clouds drift by Making shapes you see fly Changing stories up high Listening to hills sigh With winds blowing breath Birdsong chases death, No dying on the peaks For all the life you seek Is right where you left it Still sparkling as you sit Under dark skies, starlit.
