Artists have special tastes
They display their talents
To please the
Audience, if direct
Viewers, readers, if away
Their creations never meant
To hurt others
Their works invariably trigger an
Excitement among their fans
And in less artful general public
A wonder at the marvel outcome of
An extraordinary imagination and
Its delighting display
Artful creators invade the hearts
Of all, cutting across region or religion
A tasteful art form
Penetrates hearts of people
Of even less learned level
Cartoonists too fall in the category
Despite their spicy displays for their
Demonstration of wit
And extended interpretation
Of a personality or an event
Art touches the hearts
Cleanses it off ill feelings
And some creations
Educate and enlighten
Real art is one, which has common appeal
And even after a snap-shot exposure to it
People fall in love with the creation
There is no hidden intension in an art
There is no vulgarity in an art
There is no belittling of some person/sect nor a faith in an art
Artistic creation
Loses its status
If found to have hurting elements
To be depicting biased versions of reality
And to have been created of bad taste
With a seemingly draw-attention intent
Despite the excellence and the social acclaim of the artist,
Creator of such arts
Does not deserve to be called an artist
But, yes
You may brand such a person a hurt(ist)
