In this contemporary era of artists, The laymen are struggling to find, Some expression of lasting profundity, That could improve or enlighten the mind. Beautiful phrases rampantly intertwine, Line a prairie fire they spread, Not one single spark seems to stay alive In the end, when the finish is read. No one thought remains to be embedded, Readers toss on a befuddled sea, Hungrily long for a simple message, That could live on through eternity. |
