I live by the pen and paint brush,

     and imagination;

I live where no man had lived

     before Creation.

My world sinks into a deep

     submarine;

My world recreates a unique realm

     at its rim.

Where corals and weeds grow

     into a dome,

Where myriads of creatures have

     found a home.

Here there is also conflict

     among niches;

Here there is also want amid

     the riches.

Here creatures live by artful deceit

     and lies,

Here friends and foes co-exist

     with their allies.

What makes this world differ

     from the other?

What makes it orderly

     in disorder?

Do we find beauty in evil

     and its kind?

Do we find too, sin and shame

     in a bind?

Do we find beauty

     in diversity?

Do we find beauty too,

     in monopoly?

The artist's eye sees more,

     but more from the mind;

The artist's eye sees deeper

     than the rind.

I wouldn't wish to live here,

     not in this realm;

I would just paint it, paint it

     like a dream. ~
