Shadow Passing Assembled Artists Poem by Terence George Craddock

who are these shadow passing assembled artists
each working inspiring singularly or collectively
in their dream quest passion individual art forms
sometimes transforming merging into joint projects
combining collective art works film stage song poetry
visual audio sensory perception read creative art works
artists infamous world famous to unknown insignificant
all share desires to create out past vast edges of creative art

a single poet may rejoice walking morphing from poetaster to poet
claiming poetry poems prose some inspiring some mediocre trivial
expressing a desired sought rhythm point image metaphor or focus
a thought minor or massive traced from point origin to shared spread
words trivial dribble word doddles in Picasso spaghetti words threads
strains spirals in mind from fragments to perchance perceived spun rare

diamond rough or perhaps polished masterpieces a Picasso poet claims
all poet poetaster trickster mind words manipulator verses soft spoken
to soul sung a poet Houdini may escape appear vanish hidden in words
thoughts echo through time all artists are shadows passing on life stages
