The Artists

These lines you write
They all belong to me.
Even though we've never met.
I claim your thoughts
And every whim 
Inhabiting your mind.
Your lucid dreams and 
Blurry visions
Confused longings
Wrapped in forbidden prayers
Mimicking uncertainty.
You know you're mine.
You've always known.
Or else, we would have met before and 
Shared a dimension.
Why debate the clarity of
What the gods in us 
Have chosen to create?

Imperfectly Crafted

Perhaps you feared You. You In me With me Through me Around me Caught up in our Forever. So You Banished All memories of Us Into an exile of Parallel realities Where no Future is Safe or Possible.

To them, avoiding standing alone at all costs often overrules the damaging impact social pressure can have on the ability to perceive clearly and think objectively. Neil Postman, one of the most eloquent media theorists and a cultural critics of the 20th century, claimed that every technological innovation has its own agenda. Once we adopt the new invention, we become (mostly without realizing it!) part of its manner of dictating the rules of reality. The same, I believe, holds true for any system, culture, tradition, community, country and policy, when embraced in a blind and desperate rush. In order to benefit from it, we’re required to comply with its postulates. In order to be accepted, we’re often asked to leave out most of what makes us

Musings on Creative Freedom

As an artist, creator and thinker, a llow yourself to: be fully born do nothing make/do something for yourself only play for play's sake change your mind and rethink your identity, brand, values, principles, opinions if you deem it necessary build upon the work of others integrate all that you are into what you create start where you are with what you've got impose your own limitations and rules to up your art game a notch build a habit and unlearn it if you wish make stuff and destroy it from time to time not allow everyone's opinion to be the measure of your work's worth and affect your desire to create appear and disappear authentically express yourself even if it means you might upset someone create work that feeds your soul (not just your ego!) ask questions others have not asked before answer questions that others have already answered but you haven't yet not say anything if you don't feel you've got something to say hurry slowly s
