They who have ears, let them hear.

Andrew Small knew darn well he had no skills for the plastic arts.
That would not deter him from dabbling. Be curious, Andrew Small.
Paint your world upside down. Screw them who can't look at your etchings.

Creativity is to test the limits. Challenge the limits, Andrew Small.
Small followed his own advise, and cultivated his own pigments.
He tried media others might shun, including his urine and blood.

What if Andrew Small can't draw anatomically?
So what if whatever he paints, lands lopsided.
Just watch, you don't go "Vincent," Andrew.

Give a chimp, brushes and canvas,
and betcha it will produce something at the very least interesting.
Consequently, any homo sapian should do better, we who evoluted with thumbs.

If a guy has the sensitivity to admire a Van Gogh,
somewhere in that guy may lie the makings of a genius.
Release the genie, Andrew, trump the simian.

Whatever you do, Andrew, better you sacrifice your tongue than an ear.
