The Real Deal
A Poem for TC
He lives in his studio
Among his books
His paint brushes
His acrylics
He sleeps on an old red couch
It isn't burgundy or maroon
Or anything exotic
Just red
He is a true artist
He would starve
Were it not for his part time job at a bakery
Which keeps him afloat
When the patrons are low on cash
"This is the real deal" he says
When I ask if he really lives there
He gave up everything for his art
His car, his home, his women
His lifestyle as he knew it
And I envy him the paint under his nails
the evidence of creativity
I envy the fervor with which he
produces his masterpieces
from his self imposed freedom.
