It helps me,
Your life,
The invisible bridge
Between an unlikely pair
Who may or may not have ever met,
But I have heard of you.

And something, somewhere
About your life
Educates mine,
Enlightens me,
Makes me better.

So fight each day to etch your art as true and real
As you possibly can.
Do not give in to the urge to represent
Some falsehood of your everyday,
But the realities of your life,

So that the inspirations seeded in others
Will also be real enough to replace the illusions with possibilities.
