A video worth watching.

Been absent, but hope to post more soon.

A jarring week, capped by Thursday's tragedy, reminded me I don't have unlimited time. I want to create something lasting, not just live comfortably. Time to stop planning and start doing, now, before life proves again that it doesn't always go on.

Every piece of art I encounter fills me with jealous rage that others created what I could not. My mission, above all else, is to create. I'll produce mountains of dross in every medium until I find the diamond buried within. I will create something that outlasts me.

A poem of encouragement built on the idea that problems are time-soluble, that invisible struggles are still real, and that sometimes the best advice is recognizing someone is already doing fine. I'll be here regardless.

A stream-of-consciousness poem urging movement, change, and urgency before time passes you by. Life's too short for repetition and slow burns. Cut the crap, speed up, and act now while you still can.

I'm only creative when I'm unhappy. Stress and discomfort generate ideas; peace and quiet are just when I execute them. My best creative period was during depression. The problem: creating things makes me happy, which kills creativity. I need resistance to move, and I can't manufacture genuine opposition for myself.

Revising is boring.
