Welcome to the official re-launching of the Art Never Dies website.
Anybody wanna hear some poetry? We talked awhile that night A façade of words Through which we could both see It was happening Her and I stood at the edge of everything We knew nothing No acquaintance was needed I breathed her in Dark eyebrows framed her face Accenting the brushstrokes and soft colors A portrait of allure Shades of escape Hues of a landslide Doors creaking open An outstretched hand Tortured soul Let this painting be mine And home would never be the same No walls, no ceiling Sacrificed by her admission I allowed this And braced myself For the fall I drank too much of her Lost for a time The guilt of thirst stung Like a marquis driven into flesh Again and again and over again At the end of the night The unsung notes of Wanton Reckless Abandon Coded on my breath I kissed her cheek Stepped back and watched her go She smiled It was real Alive with promise and passion Her love like napalm In the jungle of mediocrity I opened my arms Palms to the sky All my life at that moment Ceased to matter At the edge of everything I lept and watched as it all fell away at my feet Her hand was warm.
