The World Was Shaped

"I have an eye for color," she says.
So do I.
Secretly, when you draw – and you think yourself amazing
and you tally up your fans – I judge you.

I've never been to art school.
But I know critique is essential to growth.

And I also know that there are artists
– at whose work you would sneer –
who are far better than you
– in your little soap box –
will ever be.
