Acumen for Making Art

Focus for production requiring self-discipline

But creativity begs letting go to just a bit of sin

Or does it really for; isn't there a part of the mind

That delivers reward without stepping out of line?

This is the creativity I am seeking to manifest

As my own reflections of who I am is the test

Now the true mental measurement is designed

By the process of my creations that I find

Therefore, perhaps the focus is just immersion

For the sake of my psychological diversion

And patting my own back for doing my best

For my measures are the only scale of my test

The product is only a symbol of my experience

If you recognize it consider your own abstinence

And in your rumination, be it similar or poles apart

Consider this as a reason that we make and value art
