Subtle Vampire
The
Subtle nature of art
Comes in color shape and light
Yet a painting is nothing without
Display and those who stroll the streets
In search for a new vision and taste of life
We are the immortal vampires of all creation
We inhale the vapors of drying oil and acrylic
We breath them into the world of friends
We obsess over and sometimes buy
The nature of art is subtle
The creative blood of
Artists is in my eyes
And my mind yet
Resides in their
Loving hands

I never thought of myself and other artists as a vampires before. I am taken by surprise. I don’t mind the comparison at all. The blood of art keeps me alive.
this is a really interesting poem.
i like it and i like the shape you assumed.
Wonderful. Being an artist and lover of art I relate to this poetic repose. I guess art, paintings, prints, and sculpture is in my veins and drives me also. Great flower photo.
