Don’t Be An Artist, But Give Me Art!

Since I’ve been watching Glee, I’ve been thinking about how people beg for the arts and yet, look down on them. As a writer it’s extremely common for people to look down on what I’m doing. Maybe they don’t think that I could possibly be any good, or maybe they think that artists are fools who don’t have real jobs. No matter what, they always come back for more, begging for it and criticizing it when it’s not to their liking. So, I decided to do something different and write a haiku about it.

Plight
The exiled artists.
Told to stave their ambition.
Hectors demand more.
