Vincent van Gogh
insane life rejection
teeming life resurrection
is framed a still life
millions paid today
for a never not once
in life sold painting
Capitalism values art best
as dead works eagerly sought
from lightning stroke hand
of classical dead master
Art as investment
art valued as original
what worth a copy?
what worth living artist?
Retrospect is
is not defined value
for the market
for the masses
To echo appreciation
to echo values
what appreciation
of lessons learned?
