Vortex of Visions
Unlocking my creative door
In a levitated mindset
Blood and air pumps faster
Igniting my mind on fire
Where I hammer
That bitch
Writer's block
Onto a crucifix
Knowing my day will come
Our roles will reverse
I’ll eventually succumb
But not today
Today I’m dead and alive
On a different plane
Feeling faded and divine
Blending sane and insane
I’ve disappeared
Writing blind lines
Scrolling my religion
Inside a blazing whirlpool
Vortex of Visions

Today I’m dead and alive
On a different plane
Feeling faded and divine

Dear A,
I have come to admire and enjoy reading how each writer overcomes blocks or finds creativity in their writing craft. The arts can be so fickle in this regard.
No joke. The second stanza is positively kick ass. H🌷

We just love the creativity in the piece. What we usually do to get rid of writer's block is to attempt to balance a hammer on our nose. You must ensure that the wooden end is down on your nose with the metal is up in the air, We have found that of you do this a few times you will knock whatever's blocking you loose. This is a tight one Della, and the hammer bit was our attempt at humor

But if you do you must film and post!!!

Re. Vortex of Visions
I love it when you dig deep and find the lines that are waiting to climb... Accessing your vortex of vision where inspiration and creativity collide in collision!! Opening the flow giving your words the green light to go....Sensing an inkling inside--deep in the depths it resides... A stirring showing you how writing blind can sometimes redefine...
Allow you to plot a different course to ultimately find an untapped resource
and.... Just. Like. That!
Your pen's back on track.
🌹-💙-🖋
Loved this spill to pieces!
Thanks for the killer inspiration, dear lady
You're awesome

Hey Billy,
Nope I'm still here - alive and breathing at DUP.
But offsite - in the middle of writing - I've left
the building.
It's exhilarating when I'm in that zone.

Hi Tim:)
Just trying different themes in writing. I found if I overthink when
I'm writing I get confused about what I'm trying to say. Then everything reads awful to me. Music helps me tremendously.
I truly believe in each piece we write we grow just a bit more
then the previous one. I'm still on my journey.
We're all missing something buddy:)
Always a pleasure to hear from you amigo.
Thanks for stopping by and the RL!!

(anyone ever tell you that you look a lot like Jamie Gertz? Lol.)
Your writers block doesn't seem to be much of a handicap if you can still eek out things like this! Maybe it feels like half speed to you, but it's still progress!
(That's a great soundtrack!)
Awesome results out of it, for your writing here! Nail it to the cross, indeed!

Re: Re. Vortex of Visions
Hey Styx,
That is not Jamie Gertz - that is Star from The Lost Boys!!! haha
I just changed the avatar to David & Star from the movie.
Where I first became enamored with Kiefer Sutherland (David) and motorcycles. hehehe
Was in a mood - my angel side is telling me I need to
calm my ass down. LOL
And look at you all slicked up in your Avatar.
You do know it's okay to smile Mr. Serious.
Hope you are having a great Saturday!!

I once briefly dated a woman actually named Star. She was so dim, for real. Some names are curses, and parents need to think real hard when they choose. Lol.
My picture is yet another work-sucks pic. It was a trade at the time (Friday). And the only filter was the window blind! And hey, I will show a teethy smile when you do! I'm also rocking the flat hat-hair. I wear a hat at work literally all the time. I don't have a glamorous job. It gets grimy at times. Pays good though!

Why am I not surprised you dated someone with the name Star. LOL
Don't knock the name!!
I have a cousin named Star (Estrella in Spanish).
She is a total over achiever and a sweetheart.
It's all in the parenting amigo.
Got a full ride scholarship to Texas State and then
got her masters at UT. Don't ask me what in though. hahaha
Just started her own jewelry line too. See overachiever. LOL
Fixing to change my Avatar again cause I'm
impulsive like that. hehehehe

Oh i know that her parents were the culprits of her dimness. Too much restrictive upbringing doesn't prepare children for the real world.
She was a very nice person, though.
So, do you own like two hundred pairs of shoes? Ms Avatar collector? Lol

No - but thanks for setting me a goal.

LMAO !! I actually have too many shoes. Like nine pair. I think that's a lot for any man over 40 plus. We settle for comfort and not style.
But I do have an awesome pair of black "cowboy" boots!

Queen of the Dead soundtrack is awesome, every song!
Love the movie too.
You are certainly a Vortex of Visions in so many ways... ;)
So incredibly creative and levitating minds.
You have your own magic show that's for sure.
Blood and air, igniting so many passionate fires.
Pretty sure that writer's block is afraid of you. lol
And I don't think you will ever succumb, not today, not ever.
Still writing from the grave, dead or alive. This plane or that.
Never faded that's for sure but always divine.
So many contrasts, sane and insane... but all beautiful.
And I love that you share in my insanity too. ;)
A blazing whirlpool is definitely more fun than a regular pool.
Everyone is so fortunate to have you here sharing your Vortex of Vision.
And being a vision too. ;) Spreading your awesomeness...
"I need to calm my ass down. LOL" Oh no you don't damnit!
Excited looks sexy as hell on you. lol

Hi Kristina!!
Than you so much for this amazing comment.
You pretty much got everything down amiga.
Was in a mood and just went with it.
Been in a crazy mindset as of late so I've been diving
into my writing when I have the time. It's been
tough during the week. No time for anything other than
boring stuff like washing and cooking. LOL
Thanks for your RL and stopping by:)

Re. Vortex of Visions
Poetic spill in such fine form. My first thought was you need as few baseball bats or at the least the best dreamcatcher. Then I saw the notes and realized the challenge here is an inanimate object, the writing project. See a tinge of a common theme of what George Harrison often incorporated in his songs, that juxtaposition of being one thing and also it's opposite.

Thank you so much for this comment. When writing for me
it just depends. Sometimes it just flows and other times
it takes time and patience. Love the idea of a dreamcatcher.
That would be so helpful - all I would need to do is push rewind. LOL

Hello John:)
Hahaha. Well thank you. I try to rock daily. In all seriousness - I had a vision - this little scene in my head. Me, sitting on the bed with a blazing vortex spinning around me. It was full of pages on fire. As they swirl around me I would reach up and grab them and start writing.
It was like I didn't even look up. My arm just snatched it from the swirl of pages. LOL
Thanks for the RL buddy!!
