The Pillars of Art ~By An Artist Who Forgets
1. You shall never compare yourself to another artist.
2. You shall not call a piece "minimalist" because you are tired of working on it.
3. You shall never be ashamed of old work- it is a reminder of where you started.
4. You shall never blame unsatisfactory photographs on your lack of equipment.
5. You shall never refuse to teach, and dare not refuse to learn.
6. You shall not fear painting- a little lack of control over your strokes is good for you.
7. You will be frustrated, anxious, and angry about your progress at your progress as an artist- you shall not let that stop you.
8. You shall take criticism as it comes, and more impor
March
I reckon I have something to say about March.
March is the friend that will not leave-
"Yawn. It's getting late. Yep. Better hit the hay."
March is a bully- barking "March!" left.left.left.right.left.
March where exactly? Somewhere warmer I guess.
The snow now sits in mounds. Just stupid mounds,
leaving bald spots that reveal the scabby yellow Earth.
March is the awkward preteen phase with acne and braces.
But more than any of that, March is you-
Winter is dead, lonely longing and Spring is young new love-
And then there is March. You. March 13th to be exact:
The one that no one really knows what to do with.
A fish out of water,
Red Pens and Cold Fingers
Pick up a red pen.
Your finger is cold and soft-
I remember now.
He said, "life isn't fair."
I thought so, until you said:
"Then we'll make it so."
Addiction.Relapse.
Who doesn't know any better?
Pass me a lighter.
All neat and proper,
Too afraid to toe the line:
What are you hiding?
Tell me and I'll search:
But I won't use quadratics,
Because you are x.
exposed pennames, rain, mystery, and being reminded of something better...this does not bode well
P.S. None of this is good ^ technically, it's more of a "haiku dump" [much like a sketch dump but with words] to scream what I want to say without saying anything.

A Dose of Philosophy- Losing Your Fight
There is no medical condition that renders one mute without damaging the vocal chord. There is no prescription for a constriction of one's chest, the weighing down of liquid lead in the esophagus, the rhythmic clicking of the jaw as one grinds his or her teeth together, caging the words that yearn to escape. I promise you, I looked it up on Web MD, [oh look, I have cancer -_-]... Sometimes you tear a ligament, break a bone, sever a spinal cord, whatever- the decorated Dr. MD PHD LSD incarcerates you into a cast and prescribes time to mend what is lost. For a gymnast, or a soccer star, time is far too costly- what a waste of skill and prowess.
