Fingerprints

Imagine
you have been
commissioned
to create
a work of
Art,

to be displayed
in a gallery
called
Fingerprints
Left At the Scene
of An Act of
Love.

You will choose
the media and
the method and
the means.

You will have
a lifetime to
create it,
so begin as
soon as you
are aware of
your assignment,

which was,
in truth,
appended to
your birth
certificate.

A word of
caution:

There will be
Schools of Art Thought and
Religions of Replication and
Adamant Artocracies.

Consider
ignoring them.

You’re the Artist.

Imagine
you have been
commissioned
to create
a work of
Art.

I confess
I believe
that Everything Real
begins in
The Imagination.
