Poem – The Path of Art II (By Gary Beck)
The Path of Art II
In primitive times
unknown individuals
painted on cave walls
not for interior decoration,
but artistic expression,
that would
unlike today,
with no gallery opening
for an elite crowd,
perhaps just the clan,
yet if they saw the strange images
might have burned, stoned,
banished the strange one,
rather than give
a scathing review
in local publications.
