Price of Art
An empty canvas
The painter mends
A naked body
That fashion trends

Thwarted passion
The singers song
A life too short
A death too long

Exhausted emotion
the actor's role
Calloused feet,
The dancer's soul

Envious freedom,
The Lover's in love
Vacant nests
The morning dove

Impatient clay
The sculptor's mold
Frightened babies
That mother holds

Bleeding pens drip,
With the poets heart
Born to suffer,
For the price of art.
