The Lie

Art begins with a lie The separation is you plus me plus what we make Look into lightbulb, blink, sun’s in your eye I want a rare sky vantage point free from misconception Art begins with a lie Nothing to lose, spontaneous rise of reflection, paint the picture of a lightbulb, or eye the sun How to fuel the world, then die Distance yourself from artfulness How? Art begins with a lie The audience wants to cry when the actors are real & passionate Look into footlight, then feed back to eye You fluctuate in an artful body You try to imitate the world’s glory Art begins with a lie That’s the story, sharp speck in the eye.
