Hope

I dream, I had touched the sun.
I dream, I touched the moon,
I dream, I touched a soul.

In my dream, the other soul, we
dance to music of ecstasy of life,
Infinity was the realm, the whole sky,
lightning and the fire of the creation
made the music for the dance.
Something peculiar was in the dance,
only a silence.
All the voices in the sky were silence,
slowly the sky was dark.
I felt inside the intensity of my existence.
I left with my own self.
Because I thought, I knew that I was alive,
but the silence in the dark night was just silence.
I looked for the other soul, who was the one I danced with?
I went in many directions,
I did not know where, if it was to my left or to my right.
I looked for the other soul, and
I just saw the dark night.
In desperation I looked for any soul,
maybe, because it was dark, or because was
only speaking to no one.
Nothing left in my thoughts,
Nothing left to hope.
Maybe, one day, I would touch another soul.
Art and Privilege


Tell me what you do and can tell you where you had been. If the history of art shows many stages of our evolution, for example, in France some the cave Niux show panting closed to10, 000 years and more show every day experience of the hunt and spirits who rule in the hunt, forward in Egypt the standing monuments of despotic rulers the Pharaohs, not doubt Art was produced of the everyday, but was not important to maintain.
The medieval art still around a despotic rulers, and despotic religion whether was the Roman Catholic Church or Islam. The religion in the name of a God, the everyday life was not important, with the rebellion by Luther against the church brought down God to every one, no more on the hands of the few. The
Golden age of the Dutch republic, the Republic brought down the monumental despotic to less despotic leaders of the city. Not to say, the monumental art continue, the National Socialism, Fascist and the Realism of the Soviet Union continue the tradition. Capitalism continues the monuments of individual egos, the French president to mark the rule get to choose a monument for themselves.
What the art shows the fact, the in our evolution nepotism and privilege is given by permit. Education accreditation is given by the state or private organizations or enterprise become the gate keepers. As individuals we accept their rule with out question or challenge, but what art has evolved each generation is reflect more about itself slowly taken the gate keepers power, but stopping to submitted and more important their right of being the gate keeper.
