I understand everything I need to know about the art world By its disdain for artists like Thomas Kinkade. Pretentious--- Art belongs to everyone, Yet they want it to be exclusive. Art feeds the artist But they want them to starve. The fact is his works are beautiful. The man was no saint. This is for certain. However, it takes superb intellect To understand the imagination. The works are beautiful--- He truly is a master of light. God truly did bless him. Though, a lesson is found in his life; To walk humbly upon the earth And not to be vain nor deceitful. To not exploit others. His paintings were brilliant. They were not kitsch. Modern art is actually kitsch Appealing to the Bathos and guttural Churning of the four biles; It is false medicine; It, rather, mistakes a leech for sutures.
