Don’t believe these heartless thieves
And the lies they sell
There’s no money in art
If that’s true
Why do all they seek to control all we do
Starving artists only exist
Because they want more gold on their wrist

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."

Surely a hand-woven or crafted bracelet would be worth more than gold.
Some artists are starving because they forgot to eat, though.... Great poem
