The Artistic Revolution

What happens if we leave passion out of our job?
Show up to work, punch in, punch out,
     go home.
Going through the motions
The cold factory of cogs devoid of art.
We can become marionettes with strings
     we attached to ourselves.
The puppet master called the American Dream
     can pull on the string of a higher 
     standard of living.
But what is a higher standard of living?
Why chase the physical wants of financial
     luxury while forfeiting the need of the
     soul to live with passion in everything
     we do?
We need to bring our art to work.
Whether the craft be connecting with people
     or painting or new business ideas or food,
We must bring a new vitality to the workplace
     with a courage to make things happen.
If you work in a cold factory and feel like
     a replaceable cog, go somewhere that 
     allows you to bring your art that you might
     live with a new fire.
