Posted by Jared Fladeland on 07/07/06 at 06:41 PM what I like about this, the most, is the subject matter. Not necessary with what is said, but what is implied. The longing for a breath of fresh air, of life.
Artists, in general, I think have a hard time making themselves feel ALIVE. I think this is what inspires them to create art.
As an actor, I felt most alive on stage. This is why I am an actor.
I write poetry because I have something so incredibly important to say.
Yet I can never find myself correctly articulating this amazing feeling in me.
It's either that, or my life has just been so screwed up, I have to vent, and I will never vent enough to satisfy my need for being healed of pain.
I prefer my first thought.
Anyway. I loved this. |
