WHAT CAN THE ARTIST DO? – II

 

What can the artist do?
Mit tehet a művész?
he posed the question
over beer after
the Simsay opening
paintings deep in the moment
powerful as ever
didn’t know her glad to now.

Aesthetics – not enough!
he said
didactics not enough!
I agreed
understanding
through the fog of
language jetlag beer
and joy.
