Un-inspired

Lack of inspiration
An intellectual drought
Emotions tapped dry.
The poet muses
The artist despairs
For art suffers.
Tragedy,
Heroism,
Romance and varied passions
Human emotions
Source of poetry.

The commoner is immune
To such troubles
For to him it is but a passing fancy.
As art dies
An inconspicuous death
The commoner lives on in ignorance.
Mediocrity rules,
Inglorious bastard!

When shall justice speak up
Poetic justice?
A lost, forgotten history
Pain-stricken yet wasted.
Disheartening
For the Artist who thrives on art
To watch from the sidelines
This ruination.
Hopeless and helpless;
An eternal suffering
This famine!
