Andy G Disposes Of Originality Poem by Terence George Craddock (Spectral Images and Images Of Light)

to render 300 written original poems
word processed over an entire year
with devotee skill artfully applied
with effort exhaustion sacrifice of soul

into ‘a foot operated waste paper bucket’?
or copied over indifferently to save
a solitary buck of absolute insignificance

thus Andy G disposes of originality
never again to be known shown in this world
with true indifference of a philistine

Philistine Andy thus destroys art
with absolute indifference
like a modern day Adolf Hitler
in ordered book burning days

one solitary disc of one novice poet not
what loss is lost of unknown artist?
guardian of this art proved indifferent
