“Survival”
Jumping cannot sustain art.
Art is mental concentrate.
A pulpy gathering of clamoring children.
You’d like them to speak one at a time.
But they don’t.

Author’s Note: Sometimes I don’t feel creative. Sometimes, I wonder if I’ll finish anything at all. Sometimes, I wish I could just push “print” on the ideas in my head and have them come out perfectly. Sometimes, I just wonder if I should be doing something else. I always come back here though and try again. This is the true creative life.
