or When

“or When”

When lies your peace?
In the message or the Saint?
When is your tranquility?
In the painter or the paint?

An artist renders art,
Mineral turned to paint.
Paint passes to brush, or hand,
Or pen.

You render tranquility,
From tomorrow,
Yesterday,
Or when?

Do you find beauty,
In the mineral, pigment or clay?
Do you find peace,
In yesterday or today?

Do you see beauty?
In the pigment, the paint?
The brush or the pen?
Do you see the art?
The artist?
Or the pen?
