The Madness Of It All Poem by Matthew Holloway

And there it goes
The madness of it all
The art and the creative process
The making of something
From the ether of the air
A creation of thought or emotion
Taking so much from it's creator
That the viewer or reader
Does not know nor care
It's just a thing sitting there
A piece of someone else
Left to be viewed
And judged
When the heart and soul
Is poured into so much
For so little reward
How can it not be called
A madness
And yet we do it still
Create and publish
And there it goes
The madness of it all
