I'm like a pencil;
sometimes sharp,
most days
well-rounded,
other times
dull or
occasionally
broken.
Still I write.

How do you receive reality?
Will you accept what is offered,
or wait to see what else
comes along?
Truth remains impartial and
deliberate.
Know what is there, and
know why it is there.
Confront your truth.

If we don’t try to face our fears,
address our flaws, or seek options
and alternatives for the ways we
fumble through our lives, we are
doing little more than existing.
How can we know comfort if
we don’t push ourselves past
discomfort?
Answers don’t appear without
questions.

We should crave art.
To acknowledge, to participate,
to breathe art in, is to
allow yourself time to be human.
If we don’t take that time,
you become just another
tax-paying citizen (or worse)
who complains about
the price of gasoline,
the foibles of government, and
the music kids listen to these days, instead of seeing
the beauty.
Art is everywhere,
and it is always there
for those who choose to look,
and those who need to have.
