SERIOUS ARTIST




You’ve had it
As a serious artist

Now

Your songs are on
The mellow music playlist
Of Sunshine Radio

Stroking

The nostalgic flabbiness
Of the middle-aged
Who hanker pastwards

Your edge
Sharp with meaning

Relevant

Become a blunted
Blandness

You can have it
As a serious artist

Now

In the stripped down
Stillness

Prophetic silence
That gives birth

To forward thrusted
Yearning

Fire of soul
Sharpness of sword

Sound of the deep
