Bonfire

I love this Crow! Perfect and simple with ease of flow. It reminds me of the monks (?) who would make elaborate sand designs and then demolish it. I think it was symbolic of them not getting attached to their art. Excellent write!

Thank you DPW.  I know what you mean about those monks, but what they're doing is still creativity even if they don't allow it to last.  "Bonfire" is really about my self-destructive inclinations and lack of confidence in my work.  I'm trying to get over the negative thinking.  Thanks again for the thoughtful comment.

Intense. The expectant reader and the dredge blocked writer. Too much pressure. I really love this 'little' write :)

Good point Lookie.  The pressure can be a killer.  There are exterior deadlines, but then there are the self-imposed standards, including comparisons to others' work.  This can be crippling, at least in my case.  Thanks!

Love this  :)

Thanks Tommie.  Good to see you!

Oh.. I loove this, sir crow!
I soo-feel the need to gas n'burn my lines at times,
attempting to erase the feelings I'd put to paper previously..
that or writers block & unsatisfied grrz.

you've smoothly evoked mind pic of 55gallon drum, open field & angsty fuel.
enjoyed this! great day to you ;)

Thank you Darksighs.  It's kind of a tough call.  Going back and destroying our own work is tempting in some cases, but I might be doing this too often.  Still, trash is trash and is best disposed of.  Just wish I could be more objective about it.

Great write!

Thank you!

awesome write crow....loved it..

I'm glad you enjoyed this Gdgurl.  Thank you!

Thanks Taryn!  I'll try not to go down in flames.

Don't know if this could be a self-portrait. . .but it should be as it is a stunning piece!. . .Enjoyed. . .xoxo, Devlin;)

Thanks Devlin.  It is kind of a self-portrait but I won't paint this one over or consign it to the fire.  Appreciate the comment baby.

I just now read this & its an amazing poem I like it

I hear guitar music behind this. Let's go be wandering minstrels and troubadours man!
