(fair use)
Is it through
the eye within
“the hand of God”
that creativity is mastered?
Is it your egoism that declares
man, in his superiority creates
his own energy source?
Is it your claim that a believe in
God’s creations
is now left out of the equation?
Is it your successful artistry that
made you unique among artists?
In your milieu
If these are so, then why do you place
your eye within
his hand?
I don’t understand.

Inspired by today's prompt from
imaginary garden with real toads
For
I like the boldness with which you address the artist - get him to explain his abstractions.
ReplyDeleteMy goodness this is good!💜 I love how you approached this challenge. "If these are so, then why do you place your eye within his hand?" ..Powerfully penned!💜
ReplyDeleteReally good, L.C. We often forget the "hand of God" in our equation. Forget that the gifts, talent, brains, and opportunities are all from Him.

Ha, until I read this poem, I had not notived his eye was in the hand....very cool. I enjoyed your response to the prompt.
ReplyDeleteIf these are so,
ReplyDeletethen why do you place
your eye within
his hand?
Very observant and a very thoughtful take, Ellecee!

Sometimes I think even the artist doesn't know why he paints (creates) the composition the way he/she does. This image left me stumped- I focussed on the compass in this image.
ReplyDeletePerhaps we none of us understand – neither this art/artist nor God.
ReplyDeleteSo much in this world unexplained?
ReplyDeleteInteresting conceptual poem
ReplyDeleteNeither do I! A beautiful write.
