Fairness forces you - even when you're writing a piece highly critical of, say, genetically modified food, as I have done - to make sure you represent the other side as extensively and as accurately as you possibly can.

Michael The Arc Angel
Hunted in the abstract painting
The lions of post modernism
Rules are gone
No eternity lingers in the background
Endless gray
Crushing freedom
The law becomes transit mores
Bought and sold
Dealt like a market
We dissipate into the state
The state becomes the globe
Numbers and calculations
Armies with spears as long as 1984
Science a commodity
Politics a new world order
Secular humanism laughed at by Nietzsche
Genetically modified food chain
Genetically modified disease soon to come
Genetically modified man is coming
Biogenesis the new via evolution
Species in the image of Lucifer
Who can stop the night?

Back in 1983, the United States government approved the release of the first genetically modified organism. In this case, it was a bacteria that prevents frost on food crops.

Simply because my people are hungry, that is no justification to give them poison, to give them genetically modified food that is intrinsically dangerous to their health.

Europe will not accept genetically modified foods. It doesn't make any difference in the final analysis what Brussels does, what Washington does, or what the World Trade Organization does.

Delayed Justice...
(This poem is dedicated to Hollister #22.)
Delayed justice is better than no justice.
The world will always be round.
Facts cannot be altered; prejudice
Is a major impediment to reach sound
Justice. Justice is all we want,
Fairness is what we fight for,
Justice is what we cry for,
Fairness is what we want.
All lives are special.
All God's children are beautiful.
All colors are essential,
To make the rainbow normal.
Justice, Justice is what we want,
Fairness is what we fight for.
Equality under the law is critical.
Equal shade can only make the rainbow
More beautiful and more impartial;
No justice will always be a Big No, No.
Justice is what we cry for,
Fairness is what we want.
The world will always be round.
Finally, we can hear the sound
Of the bells. Justice is around
The corner; she is upward bound.
Delayed justice is better than no justice.

If you're writing a piece for the Boston Pops, the balance is towards one end. If you're writing a piece for a chamber music society, then it's towards another point. I won't make a final answer on that. I think it changes with every piece.

Good critical writing is measured by the perception and evaluation of the subject; bad critical writing by the necessity of maintaining the professional standing of the critic.

What Will I Do Today And What Will I Do Tomorrow?
What will I do today and what will I do tomorrow
And what will I do for the rest of my life?
Write and write and write
Until I can no longer write –
And even if this writing is never known?
And even if this writing is wholly lost?
And even if this writing is not really worth very much?
And even if it is known only a little?
And even if others are highly critical of it?
And even if it seems vanity of vanity and only vanity?
Write and write and write
To the end of my life.

Battles of Fairness
Fairness?
To honesty, fairness is Fair,
To sincerity, fairness is Accuracy,
To integrity, fairness is Absolute!
To the law, fairness is JUSTICE!
To dedicated public servant
FAIRNESS IS MORE THAN A SALARY,
MORE THAN TEARS, MORE THAN JUSTICE,
MORE THAN SWEAT, MORE THAN HONOR,
MORE THAN LOVE and
MORE THAN JUSTICE.
But to the twisted society
FAIRNESS is
BEYOND DOUBT
and BEYOND
QUESTION!
I have no doubt,
I have no question.
The gavel is yours.
But...
you can't stop me

Condition Critical
Oh the tension's mounting
The pressure starts to show
All the men in haunting
Please don't let me go

Try to free my body

These'll never break me
(Don't go)
Free wheel to look at me
Condition critical
I'm feeling physical
Condition critical
Now I'm really cynical
The bells they are ringing
Or is it in my head
My nerves numb understanding
I'm falling out of bed
(Don't go)
So call it paranoia
(Don't go)
I don't see it that way
(Let's go)
You say I adore ya
(Hell no)
We're gonna rock they way
Condition critical
I'm feeling physical
Condition critical
Now I'm really cynical
Ooh ooh
Whips and chains
Don't feel no pain

Over heels

No pain, only pleasure
Get me out
Take me home
Can't you see my condition
Woo-woo-woo

Uh, uh, uh
Uh, uh, uh
Youre never trying to eat
Always stood right by me
Make living lively
Highly spoken of
My only love
The only one, youre my wifey
Make my life complete, sweet
But you know when to flip it street
Freak, but only when it comes to me
See thats why youre my wifey
This you should know
Cause you had my mind blown, oh, oh
Full of junk at the club on bump, like what
I had to have you babe
Saw you outside, passenger side
Cause I let my best friend drive
You was in line
Thats when you caught my eyes girl
You were so beautiful, girl
It was so critical, girl
You looked so crucial, girl
Something about you is everything
You are mine
Youre never trying to eat
Always stood right by me
Make living lively
Highly spoken of
My only love
The only one, youre my wifey
Make my life complete, sweet
But you know when to flip it street
Freak, but only when it comes to me
See thats why youre my wifey
You know youre sexy too
I like your attitude
I aint even mad at you
Girl, youre still my boo
Either braids or weave,
Skirt or jeans youre still my queen
Baby-girl go do your thing
Im so glad youre on my team
You were so beautiful, girl
It is so critical, girl
You looked so crucial, girl
Something about you is everything

Youre never trying to eat
Always stood right by me

My only love
The only one, youre my wifey
Make my life complete, sweet
But you know when to flip it street
Freak, but only when it comes to me
See thats why youre my wifey
Someone I can spend my life with
Leave the keys to the benz
Wedding band with your gems
Youre someone I feel all right with
Someone to have my kids
Someone I can depend
Youre never trying to eat
Always stood right by me
Make living lively
Highly spoken of
My only love
The only one, youre my wifey
Make my life complete, sweet
But you know when to flip it street
Freak but only when it comes to me
See thats why youre my wifey
Skinny designer fit real jiggy
Aint afraid to hump with me
When we get busy
Ride out I licky-licky

Toes done, fresh scent
I think its sizzly
Oh someone who was down with me
Used to struggle
Now I both count the gs with me
Pop the champagne
Lets take a sippy-sippy
Describe you I try to
Youre my wifey
Will you be my wifey?
(yes Ill be your wifey)
Oh say youll be my wifey girl

Will you be my wifey?

Oh say youll be my wifey girl

Still Life With Death's Head, by Pablo Picasso
If you want a still life
Do not forget to plant a death head by the bowl
Possibly a torn ear to take a hint
At what the noise deceased was thinking
Possibly a piece of an eye in the rear
To grasp all inclusive within a blink
Possibly an eyecon to trick the light
Confidential perspective
And try not to stand too close to it
Unless well trained at colours

Piece Of My Heart
Didnt I make you feel
Like you were the only one
Didnt I give you everthing
That a man possibly can
But all the love I give you
Its never enough
But Im going to show you baby
That a man can be tough
Come on come on come on come on
And take it take another little
Piece of my heart
Break it break another little
Piece of my heart
Have it have another little
Piece of my heart
You know youve got it if it makes you feel good
Youre out on the street looking good
And you know deep down in your heart it aint right
And you never never hear me
When I cry for you each night
Sometimes I tell myself I cant stand the pain
But when I hold you in my arms
I say it again
Come on come on come on come on
And take it take another little
Piece of my heart
Break it break another little
Piece of my heart
Have it have another little
Piece of my heart
You know youve got it if it makes you feel good
Sometimes I tell myself I cant stand the pain
But when I hold you in my arms I say it again
Come on come on come on come on
And take it take another little
Piece of my heart
Break it break another little
Piece of my heart
Have it have another little
Piece of my heart
You know youve got it
So take it take another little
Piece of my heart
Break it break another little
Piece of my heart
Have it have another little
Piece of my heart
Take it take another little
Piece of my heart
Break it break another little
Piece of my heart
Have it have another little
Piece of my heart

Chemical Eden of Shelf Life Goods
Enter the garden: of commerce labour
Here taste the fruit under sunlight fluorescents
You can find verity in one or two choices
Vegetation sterilized polished lit synthetics
Come taste the fruit in shelf life groves
Arrayed in the nature of alphabetic order
Apricots opposite peaches and plums
Keep red separate from tangerines and oranges
Cellophane wraps on prepackaged lettuce
Enhance the flavour with plastic vigour
Genetically modified red beef tomatoes
Could give your children a taste for a tumor
It's a chemical Eden disguised as produce
Quick sterile minerals is synthetic nutrition
With modified cornstarch Gluten conditioned
You hardly realized your biologist reduced
To shelf life goods

Life in the business is also highly challenging. Sometimes you are dissatisfied, it's difficult sometimes. You're always thinking of how it could be better. It's a 20-legged race, you don't work alone. There are so many others working to tell the same story. We as Indian artists don't have the luxury of being individuals. We represent ages and ages. The work of an artist is a highly responsible one.
