Life's short and art's long, so they say, it's true
That certainly seems the case every day
No shortcuts for true art, you have to do
The right thing, the true aim, and not obey
The dictates of the powerful, though they
Wish to ban you or control you. They can't
Actually stop you if your art's the way
You want to go, and not as they have planned
Nullify their parasitic diktat
Follow yourself only, hear only you
It makes you happy, that's the only way
If you indeed are a true artist, and
Not a careerist. Whether red or blue
Who cares, we don't, it's beauty we purvey
