Baseball speaks life
strike a match,
strike a pose,
strike three,
your out.
of what?
where to?
how come,
and why?
blind faith
cannot win bases.
swinging at chances
create opportunities
of scoring.
to late now
for a bunt.
Planting what cannot tend itself
whether in a group
or by myself,
i feel alone.
whose fault is that?
i’d like to blame nature,
but she is exacting.
and why is nature “she”?
it’s because creation is
nurtured from its creator.
to water a plant is easy,
tending its development taxing.
Posey neutered
woman is to rose
as man is to thorn.
no reason for
a few little pricks
to ruin what’s beautiful.
I try art because art lives
“art saves him, and through art – life.”
this was a line that i took, probably out of context, from friedrich nietzche. you must pardon me, for i’m trying to read what i don’t know, which to be honest, is everything. disregarding his initial intention, i’ve taken these words to mean something else to me.
this snippet in particular resonates with why i create, let alone think. i’ve always used some form of art to express myself. it’s a cyclical existence you see: i live to create and i create what i live. i’ve tried to realize my shortcomings as a so called “artist” – the lack of technical proficiency and misconception – although, i use these weaknesses as a strength. how can a weakness be a strength? simple. to know one’s limit is to know one’s progress.
i will admit mediocrity, even when i strive for originality. Knowing this, i still create what i can with what i’ve got because this cathartic impulse can only be satiated by myself.
regardless of its uselessness to others, i create because i live and i live for that ideal that is but a shadow of reality i experience.
Creating confusion
is there creation in
destruction or
is it just
reconstruction?
make things,
break things,
reorganize things
constants in change
as functions remain
do what is known
learn to adapt
experience a truth
not borne from words
