Abstract...-W

            Abstract art forms have always puzzled me. Whenever I witness an abstract art form I wonder 'why should one complicate one's ideas while expressing them?'. After all, expression is a medium of putting forth your thoughts in an organised manner. I have seen abstract dance forms which guard veiled ideas or meanings. Abstract movies/plays are meticulously directed to offer the precise theme and message. Abstract paintings portray different meanings to different viewers. They have always disturbed me in terms of clarity and transparency. After speaking to some people who practice and master such art forms here is what I inferred: ABSTRACT When thoughts dig deep And form a heep When brain forms a clench Lest it should belch When words do not work Under fear they lurk When expression must be subtle Yet, the fervour should not shrivel Then, What rescues is the art What takes shape is Abstract .
