Art and Design |
When the world is a mess and children are strapped to the torture machines |
And dictators clamp down, sending their troops to the centre of things |
That’s when I turn to art and design, the only two things I can truly call mine |
When they kill journalists for just doing their job and just telling the truth |
And when it’s suddenly fine for the streets to resound with racist abuse |
That’s when I turn to art and design, to beautiful things from beautiful minds |
And artists who look see visions of alternate universes |
And designers have put all this beauty into the things around us |
And that’s why I turn to art and design, political things that aren’t yet a |
crime |
The most beautiful flowers spring, so they say, from the throats of dead kings |
And the beautiful powers come when people themselves control the machine |
That’s why I turn to art and design, beautiful things that change minds |
