A dustspeck
On a dustspeck
In a whirlwind chaos of dustspecks;
But when I die
Reality dies with me.

I like this. a lot.

I love the dustspeck aspect. I'm confused about the last line though "reality dies with me" seems contradictory to the rest of the poem. But its a good short poem, in general i'm not a fan of short ones, but this one catches my attention.

The basic idea is that while I live a short-ass time, as an artist, I form the world. We may all be faced with the same visual stimuli, but its the meaning we apply to it that creates our reality. So when I die, all the reality I ever knew fades with me.

That has to be one of the best philosophies i have ever heard. You just gave your poem a whole new aspect for me, and i like it even more now! You've given me a new appreciation for short poems.
