Summary

This week if you want to be an artist every day but the business of life gets in your way, I can relate. I went through that struggle this week but luckily I develop some practices that keep me creative even in busy weeks like this one. As a result, I am able to share three pieces in this episode. I have a question for you, which one would you write to? Or Which one would you like me to continue to develop? I like all three but school is starting and you know how it is. We have to learn to prioritize. I like episodes like this one where we get to work together as a community of artists to grow our creative flow. If you can just let me know in the comments: Which one would you write to? What comes to your mind and heart for you with this piece? Here are the pieces: 1 Strike a match to the daylight burns Treating night like the ash on scorch earth Running blaze the essence of the second Pressure place to make time worth the weight 2 Dodge dirty a look more than a right hook but can't dodge the book thrown at my jaw being booked before a break in law No breaking spines No folded corner creases on my pages Just scuffs on the cover. Scoff at a brother from the others' mothers Left us to fend in gutters Defend their shutters on windows eyes closed You safe in here as the storms blow Deny your ears when the rattles grow Stones to pebbles trunk debris on concrete on broken streets 3 Flash from the past. Task from the class. Back of the facts. Flask under mask Whack on the track. Stock falling flat. Pack up them caps. Smacked for the flack. If you can just let me know in the comments: Which one would you write to? What comes to your mind and heart for you with this piece?
