RE: Poem X
Art can have many facets. The writer's work, that is, expressing the unspeakable with the same words we all know, that disposition, that play on chosen words, is what becomes art or not. It could be used to tell the truth, to motivate; everything has different ways of interpreting it. But sometimes art is mixed with politics, and, in my view, art is not political. Art is emotions flowing, connecting like-minded people, exalting the beauty and humanity in each being.
The true essence of art is what comes from the heart, without any agenda, just a true feeling.
But perhaps sometimes circumstances, society, and time itself make art political, whether we like it or not.
Still, if art connects people, supports truth, and gives space to beauty, then that art is worthy of survival.
Your theory is respectable.
