I believe in art.

though honorable and necessary,

i fail to recognize the emotion and fervor within technology and maths.

what is art?

 

the word itself is much too expansive to define,

but to me art has always been

emotion,

love,

rage,

hope,

truth.

interestingly enough, these are the same feelings that have dissolved into obscurity as time has progressed. 


and one can only wonder why
