Art in all its forms
Is the thief of time
Stealing from the past
Sharing with the present
And the future
Like Robin Hood
For time is wealthy in memory
And, like Shylock, reluctant to give.
An evening song will reawaken your life’s morning
A painting will view like déjà vu from lives unremembered
And a poem will whisper your life’s story back to you.
– Che Chidi Chukwumerije.

I always feel that that’s the role of art – and when someone tells me that my work achieves that for them, I feel a kind of gratitude.

A thief who is welcome – art is like a lover, taking from heart and soul, but nourishs the mind.
Even shared art, like someones poems does, sometimes. (-:
