It has been said creating and cooking are feminine traits

Yet many of our finest artists, chefs and writers of late
Have been members of the male species and have done well
Because they are capable of not only doing it, but sell

Their craft directly to the right people who can market
Their particular skills, for they know them well & target
Specific areas where these crafts are liked and desired
For these people know how to reach out and get them hired

Commissioned to create their craft again for direct pay
So the artistes do so, and enjoy it well while making hay
And once marketed well, and also distributed throughout
The world ... both artist and manager will never doubt

Each other's talent - for they will both come to depend
On each other - and so will not anytime soon look to end
A relationship which will cause each other so to bloom
While their bankers are making even more in the next room!
