Challenge
Art? Should it have a motive; a meaning? Or should it simply stand for itself; for beauty alone?
In any from, preferably prose. Tell me what you think on this issue. I have recently changed my opinion on the matter, almost entirely by accident in fact.
Isn’t beauty a motive too?
Art is the breath in my lungs,
the blood in my veins,
the shining glint in my eyes,
the medicine to my pains.
You ask me whether it's plausible or not
that art is an entity of great intellect
or is it really just to please the mind,
and to say this ,is my duty.
Beauty is the intelligence that fuels an artist's passion,
for art is a way to release,
all that pent up fuming aggression.
It is true,
the elegance of art is enamouring beyond words,
but isn't beauty a motive too?
for flawless meanings and plans define perfection,
and isn't perfection elegant too?
