Art Is Not The Enemy

I enter the room
Sit at a desk
My mind full of wonders
The world cannot comprehend

A single white sheet
Is placed in front of me
Drawing a blank
Upon a sea of nothingness

Whatever confidence I brought
To the table has vanished

All I'm left with
Is the voice
Of my first year art teacher
Belittling my attempts
At drawing a freehand circle

You're no Rembrandt
He could draw a circle freehand
Try using a compass

Sat, still thinking
Drowning out this voice
With many unanswered questions
Fills me with nothing, but doubt

Perfect time to start criticising
A work of art
