There are some who can find beauty in chaos,

A sculpture within a mass of stone

They can find images of marvellous creatyres

Hidden in random brush strokes.

But there are others who can't see

The pictures in vibrant colours

Or the beauty of shapes and lines

Carefully placed by the artist

In a certain place at a certain time.

I do not know where I stand

In the shadows or spectacular light.

Perhaps I shall never know

Or only see it once.

Merely blink and it disappears,

And all I see is a tainted canvas.
