WHEN THE ARTIST 110420 - DOG AT THE GATE

James Michael Taylor

I have a new love
Of course she doesn’t know
How can a work of art
Know when lovers come and go
And when the artist is the art!

My eyes are the eyes of the beholder
And my eyes are the eyes of the world…

…when the artist is the art.

I wrote this about a girl named Rachel Eastman I watched at an art showing at the Grackle 2 or 3 years ago. I talked with her and found that she needed a left-handed guitar. I found one for her and when I gave it to her (in a dark parking lot somewhere in north/west Fort Worth one night) she gave me a piece of her art. She didn’t know about the song until today: Sept 4, 2023.
