Art is a Dead Language

Art is a dead language, rotten to the core

With fake connoisseurs who always want more

Those who call themselves artists don't know

That one can not reap what he hasn't sown

Art is a selfish, cancerous thing

For self-centered, self-obsessed beings.

 For children and babies who never learn

For people who never give anyone else a turn

to speak

to be loved

to be noticed

it's all about them

I am an artist, not worth a penny or dime

I am an artist, not worth giving me your time

I am an artist, maybe you can forgive me

I am an artist, please don't be like me

Art is a dead language, never spoken before

Art is a dead language, no one ever says a word

But I am young, maybe I'll grow out of it

Oh, I hope, I hope I grow out of it.
