"Mere life" is not enough to satisfy an artist. It must be shaped, molded, into something that - in its very shapeliness, its ordering - is GIVEN meaning. This is the vision, the end, of art. Yes. I believe that is what art does...it transports us for a while. Frost calls it a "momentary" stay against confusion. No one thinks of it as "reality." Whatever that is, good God, we have more than enough of it in our lives.-- Anonymous –
Have a great Tuesday!

Very funny cartoon, Mr. C.
And - just wanted to note that your new poem posting on Poetrypuddle is fantastic. Breathtaking, really.
I am quite amazed at the range of style and subject matter in your work.
All I can say is that you must have some marvelous sources of inspiration.
Always look forward to reading you, cipriano.
Keep it coming.
