                    Headless doll (a cross in its place) as a parking sign (Commonwealth Ave., QC)                                          

If art originates from thoughts cum feelings,

     could it also originate from feelings alone,

that creeps into the darkness of life

     gnawing the being to the bone?

If one finds art in a piteous parking sign,

     is it akin to compassion, to a kind soul -

needless that a headless doll speak

     of morbidity, but of a pleading call?

In this corner the artist calls it surreal,

     but the soul rises above reason and heart -

its emptiness filled with some sanity,

     that surrealism is neither fate nor art. ~
