a Poser Poem by Thorne We love our Poser program, we love our Poser toys. We love our Poser girls, And we love our Poser boys! There's just been one small question, Disturbing from the start: We have a lot of Poser stuff, But is it really art? I paid for all the textured props, and heaven only knows Where on the 'net I downloaded My little model's pose! I did not make the Poser girl, Nor did I make her map; In fact while she was rendering, I went and took a nap! At least the hair is post-work, Because I had to pop A prefab hairstyle from a tube I found in PhotoShop. Oh! it looks fantastic! yes, It really turned out great... But not one single element Therein did I create. I bought it all or found it free On websites near and far, I made a fine collage of it, and now I am a star! Perhaps then I might sell my work to my adoring crowd! Too bad the Read-Me text file states: No Commercial Use Allowed. Yet still my art has made me proud; It warms my little heart! But I can't keep from wondering, Is it REALLY art? Just something that I wonder about from time to time... =};-}>
