Lamentations And Limitations Poem by shimon weinroth

Can you squeeze the 'Blue Boy ' on canvass
The fate of icarus
Potato Eaters supping with Winslow's Mother
And still tell the story

Conceptions deceptions
Touch the heart, touch the mind
Adrenalin flows and the pulse quickens

Unseemly and obscene to fiddle with
Three dimensional world, draw and paint
Try to breathe life on to
Frame by means of two

Invite the vicarious
Cluck their tongues, sagely praise
Distortion
And still call it Art

Craft of artful
Computer and robot
Make even hotdogs

Hamburgers taste different

Shimoan
