Art Is Art

Art is not just in words or in hand. Its in your mind and the way you want to express

Martial Arts Is a from of defense

That get stronger with excellence

All the punches and the kicks

Will eventually leave a critical hit

The posture is of essence

To intimidate his combat sense

Land your first blow

To finish his flow

Use your powerful chi

And break the spell

Speed and force is vital

To drain his vitality

Be extremely careful

Cause ignorance is bliss

Drive your way to his thought

Cause just beating won't save your spot

This is excellent Terrence. Its Art of War in prose. Fantastic!

one line I feel is a fly in this ointment though -
"Cause ignorance is bliss" - it just doesnt sit naturally after the previous or before the preceding lines. Was it shoe-horned in - I think you meant to convey by that line, that not knowing your opponent (hell, or your own capabilities for that matter) in a fight is dangerous - to the extreme - not exactly a state of bliss...
If anything its a state of danger !
how about
"Be extremely careful
knowledge is your ally"

But the power of this and the Tao of martial arts in this is very good indeed my friend.

Chang: I really like it: it's like a metaphor for life to me: Use your mind in everything we do; more inportant than anything: Be extremely careful Cause ignorance is bliss: Love it. Been to many karata tournaments....So happy to read this. Thank you so much. Cause just beating won't save your spot. Dale

The experiment came our really good, it made me imagine a man practicing martial arts.
One great poem Terrence!

[Terrence Chang]

Thank you Lizardo. I was wondering what is art. Is it the word that we say or the lines we draw or the way we move
