Art is Not Real

I think sometimes that all art must have deep and true meaning

this is false, so I write you a poem about my furbee I got when I was 8 that sits atop my desk, slumped over

You sit there, blue and dead and silent
empty are your eyes
cold are your eyes
precise, mechanical, and possibly cynical
you lit up once
no more is the glow in your eyes
you once had
there you sit, silent, blue, and sad

because reality is false
