When art and real life collide

one feels the dissolving of the great divide

use one to feed the other

choose not to let life smother

the creative well in which you dip

dreams are gifts don’t let them slip

from your arms and into the abyss

for this chance you will surely miss

to showcase and express your greatness

if you do this

It only takes one idea, one notion, one creation

to inspire and awake the nation

you have millions underneath your cap

all you have to do is tap, tap, tap

watch it pour

don’t be afraid

you have more

so paint, sing, write, dance and design

complete oneness and joy you’ll find

Yes, it’s you I’m speaking to. Go be a creative being.

There’s nothing wrong with being an art fiend.
