L.A. Curate


Ever since humans came down from the trees and walked into caves to get out of the rain
We humans have had a need for art to be woven into our brains
To rise above the reptilian fight or flee parts
To seek the escape to higher pleasure afforded by art
A need to paint on cave walls images of our great hunting skills
Larger than life portraits of our many kills
Or examples of conquered subjects bowing to our will
Images and art to warm the cold cave chills
Like 2001 we have evolved to a myriad of media of art still
Canvass, clay, paper, ceramic, sculpture—the endless list to our artistic side thrill
A never ending harvest, a bounty of art throughout L.A.
To emote, to soothe, to wonder, to for a moment the rat race slay
So many galleries and artists in the haystacks to try to find
With so little free time our art lover is almost blind
There is an answer, there is another way
To find the art needle in a crowded traffic clogged L.A.
Open up an app that bears the L.A. name
Like a moth hone in on the siren flickering artistic flame
No more aimless wandering burning gas for the empty pit of a blank wall to allay
So easy to home or office walls or shelves curate
L.A. Curate the best and only way to your art needs sate
