A Waste of Art

Art meets freedom: Black and white image depicting classical sculpture alongside a pained man, symbolizing the poem's themes of body image, deception, and the human condition.

When art meets freedom

an unusual misunderstanding thrives:

no glory can come from the altered body,

nor health is found from constant deception;

the offspring is observed by nature,

a paradox drawn by its own behavior;

a strange gaze unfolds

from the energy of a hidden truth;

who can name one self as superior in this world?

A quality that slays the art;

the heart is shy, concealing its shame

and nature claims, “what a waste of self”.
