"Art is freedom. Being able to bend things most people see as a straight line."

Sometimes

Across the fields of yesterday,
He sometimes comes to me,
A little child just back from play
The child I used to be.

And yet he smiles so wistfully
Once he has crept within,
I wonder if he hopes to see
The man I might have been.
