Is it art or art-
ifice, when an angel takes a chisel
to the sky? 
Art is lending your voice to your
own, or someone else’s song. 
It takes place at the inter-
face of beauty
and truth. 
It happens on faith, 
like a rose unfolds,
like a boy turns his back
to his bag in a park and 
neither of us sees it get stolen, 
we’re too busy talking.
