Caveat

When you have finished
with the art, you will still have
bills to pay, people
you were meant to care for,
and a pile of high-toned words
you are supposed to believe. 

Maybe
you get a free pass on all that
if others learn from your work
and the world changes…

but I don’t know
who’s in charge of handing those out —

do you?
