Hanging in the Gallery |
Is it the painter or the picture |
Hanging in the gallery? |
Admired by countless thousands |
Who attempt to read the secrets |
Of his vision of his very soul |
Is it the painter or the picture |
Hanging in the gallery? |
Or is it but a still life |
Of his own interpretation |
Of the way that God had made us |
In the image of His eye? |
Is it the sculptor or the sculpture |
Hanging in the gallery? |
Touched by fleeting strangers |
Who desire to feel the strength of hands |
That realised a form of life |
Is it the sculptor or the sculpture |
Hanging in the gallery? |
Or is it but the tenderness |
With which his hands were guided |
To discard the unessentials |
And reveal the perfect truth? |
Is it the actor or the drama |
Playing to the gallery? |
Heard in every corner |
Of the theatre of cruelty |
That masks the humour in his speech |
Is it the actor or the drama |
Playing to the gallery? |
Or is it but the character |
Of any single member of the audience |
That forms the plot |
Of each and every play? |
Is it the singer or his likeness |
Hanging in the gallery? |
Tongue black, still and swollen |
His eyes staring from their sockets |
He is silent now, will sing no more |
Is it the singer or his likeness |
Hanging in the gallery? |
Or is it but his conscience |
Insecurity, and loneliness |
When destiny becomes at last |
The cause of his demise? |
