Embracing the Broken Spiral
by Keith Loines

[Poetry]

In my experience, there are three types of people in this world when it comes to any form of art. There are those who see it, those who look for it, and those who feel it.

Those who simply see art do so by accident. They are driving in their car and see a landscape and think silently how beautiful it is, but forget about it by morning.

Those who look at art and those who have the need to find the artistic qualities in everything for visual stimulation will pick fresh flowers or spend a day at the beach trying to capture the sunset rather than building sand castles.

But those who feel art are the ones who will benefit from this book the most. Every emotion, every thought, and every consequence has been poured into these pages. Yes, the other two types can find hours of enjoyment in scanning these pages, but it is meant for those who will read and feel. We are the ones who will ultimately succeed in bringing art unto all.
