we are interesting beings, to say the least

I kike to think of us all

  (but often times just me)

as a phoenix, the elemental bird

we die from our own fire

   that we create

   it is innate

   it burns from inside us

in flames

   raging straight from the gut

   from our faith

   it's in our nature - 

      we possess passion -

and suddenly we come to be from the ashes.

destruction is the necessary action

to spark a creative reaction

art is temporary

art is not everlasting

but the experience, in flesh and in breath

is where lies the magic

the drive and the madness.

destroy, rebuild.

art will always happen.
