We had acknowledged Vincent
He may have had the love he dreamed of
He may have had more friends
He may have lived longer
And we would have had
More
Treasures from Him
Instead he was reliant
On the kindness of his family
Lucky though he was
Perhaps
In that regard
What for had we given
This Artist
Scant Regard
We could have had so many More
Sunflower paintings in our midst
We love our Artist's
When they are dead
And treat them
With near inhumanity
While they are alive
The Artist
Is an afterthought of Greed
And this should change
In a Humane Society
