The Escape Artist(s)(1 Tim 6: 19) Look Into The Painting and What Do You See? Is It A Destination Or Is It A Journey? Is It Where You've Been or Where You'd Like To Go? Now, Only You Can Say What Picture(s) To You Shows And What Does The Picture(s) To You Means Whether Just Drawn-Out-Drama Or Your Most Desireful Dreams? See, The Things We Do… Or Create Such As Music, or Sculpture's Shapes A Mansion, A Yacht or Goals To Chase Are Objects We Use… To Escape … … From The Tedious Dismal or Mundane We Escape To Movies Books or Scenes-In-Frames … From Dilemmas or Bored or Biased or Mistakes Yes, Mankind Must Escape (or at least – take a break) So An Artist Paints and A Writer Writes But Both Travel On Adventure–Fueled Flights Whether Art of Painting Or Music Or Poetry Somewhere There'll Be The Topic Territory of … Free and I've Seen Many A Painting Where I Wanted To Be There and I've Read Many A Poem That Made Me Unction In Prayer Read of Promises & Feelings & Wishes In Whispers Heard and I've Been Whisked Away … To Escape To Written Words & I've Seen Paintings So Exquisite That I Could Close Eyes & Cry ‘Cause I Wanted To Be There Instead of What Was ‘Round My Eyes … and I've Heard Music So Beautiful That I Play It Over & Over Again & It Takes Me To Places Sunny or Moonlit Paths or Symphony-Rains and Vivid Imaginations That Come Across So Wonderful … That The Mind's Eye & Insight … Just Reached Out & Pulled And When I, As A Viewer Escape Into An Artist's Volunteered Estate I Remember The Moment & Silence-Space Their Offered Touch & Personal Tastes … … of Wave-Tossed Ships On Seascapes of Flower-Garden Picnics Pretty Landscapes & For A Second & For My Sighing-Soul's Sake I Run Away & Leave … and Escape So Until Fantasy & Reality Changes Their Place Until Beauty Transforms Every Ugly Thing's Face Until Brave Overpowers Fears & Makes It Embrace Until Life From Death … Finally Escapes Yes Until All My Dreams Come Alive … & Takes Shape Outside I'll Watch As Inside … Escapes Written & ©: 7/2/2013 By: The MoonBee Poetry Ad-Free Upgrades Vote for this poem
