every artist has a bitter gourd


Art is much like bitter gourd.
friendly on the appearance but bitter in its taste.
its an acquired taste. Not every one understands it. 
Some absolutely hate the bitterness, while others love to have it every other day.
Cook it this way and that, fry it with eggs, with salt fermented bean paste with pork or chicken,
deep fried with curry powder or boiled into soup.
Diabetics take them for its medicinal properties..

So when art is as obscure as bitter bitter gourd..
I have since grown up and acquired a taste for it .. a love.
the taste which like no ordinary... lingers long after the matter dissolved
it has worked its way into my system, bringing a general well being. 

there stands one who has a bitter seed growing within.. 
Cultivate a new species known as 
bitter gourd padi.. small yet bitter like hell.

to all YOU bitter artists of this world.. may your bitterness lives long, lingers and torments the living soul-less who wonders.... in search...
