Use your well of blood
And your quill of thought
To create a work of art

Use your ink blotted parchment
And your waxing candle
To create new life

Use your blood to stain
Your thoughts to feign
A work of art with no name

Use your parchment to burn
Your thoughts to discern
The new life born unlearned

But do not recreate yourself
Or what you've felt
As the candle melts

Because the work of art
Is still uncreated
It's still mistaken [comments] => 6 [counter] => 195 [topic] => 13 [informant] => essentially9 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 15 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )

Blood of an Artist

Use your well of blood
And your quill of thought
To create a work of art

Use your ink blotted parchment
And your waxing candle
To create new life

Use your blood to stain
Your thoughts to feign
A work of art with no name

Use your parchment to burn
Your thoughts to discern
The new life born unlearned

But do not recreate yourself
Or what you've felt
As the candle melts

Because the work of art
Is still uncreated
It's still mistaken
