CONSTRUCTIVE
criticism
about
the
arT
i
produce
in

and
such!
“2. The point of poetry is to compress your thoughts – see if you can suppress your emotions and give us the heart of your message in a much abbreviated form.”
Hmm..
in
an
intense
FREE FLOWING
MARTIAL
ARTS
EXHIBITION
OF
THE
FREEST
LET

OR
WILL
IT
BE

Oh.. that tiger.. is that in the tank.. i seem to remember there were such things
Yes! Vintage Exxon..selling ploy for gasoline starting in ’65..at the time i loved the Dinosaur ploy by Sinclair Oil Company even more..collecting all their plastic dinosaurs..when imagination still ruled..and a whole play can be inspired..by a couple of plastic figures..in the back yard..i’m doing it again..in metaphor wRite here..now..the child i am then is once again..!2..:)!
ok…whole lot to chew on…pretty cool that you found your dads soft side…law enforcement is tough business…
and the stuffed animals make for a cool connection with him…what go i think god thinks of dance and art and poetry…
i think you have to look little farther than David…who danced and wrote poetry to understand that one.
Short answer is..
True..
smiles as usual..friend..:)
ha… continue breaking the rules… one and only wayyyyy
Thanks Desmond..i’ve learned to skirt the border..of getting me in real trouble..both at home..and as applicable to local..state and federal rule..and guess someday it will be international rules toO..as life goes on..and folks do learn to tolerate and accept differences that make the ENTIRE human race what it is..and of course smileS to ya 2..friend..:)
Hi Katie ~ I like the free flowing thoughts ~ Unfortunately your words & imagery are not keeping with our Poetics – We are writing inspired by Joel Robison’s photography ~ I will be deleting your link from Mr. Linky ~ Sorry about this but this writing challenge is very specific ~ Have a good day ~
Well actually I am inspired by the prompt and to use his actual photography is indicated as option not requirement.. But you designed the prompt .. So of course that interpretation may vary.. No need to apologize friend..I go with the flow wherever it takes me..:)
I can revert back to the mind of the technical writer and government regulation designer and discerner that is part of my work as a government worker for over two decades, as red tape guy, if you will, too.
I used five elements from the theme of what you write about in the dVerse prompt regarding the photography of this inspirational gentleman.
The first is breaking the rules of standard function and form when it comes to poetry, dance, and martial arts as art rather than science for a metaphor.
The second is passion. The passion of breaking through over two long decades as a cog in a machine of life in general; and yes, specifically, as I indicate here in government work.
The third is adventure. The adventure in finding excitement in the mundane of life; everyday in every thing I do with joy.
The fourth is incorporation of the Disney element in the song I used; not only for the main blog post, with Frozen, but also for the Lion King in perhaps the greatest passion and adventure I do in restricted link, in middle aged renaissance style straight male nude art; additionally including religious elements from the gnostic gospel of Thomas; definitely breaking the standard rule there of social norm.
And of course the fifth element is the photography I use myself, in perhaps the greatest element of breaking the rules, in so called secular life; asking God for direction; and God replying through synchronicity in God’s own way, providing the photography to inspire the words that come.
Now of course, where I totally fail is where I do the poetry before the prompt, but along with the sixth element magic; from the theme of the inspirational photographer; it is incorporated into the magical tiger, and reality itself; a priori, if you will, too.
Now at this point, whether or not you pat me on the back or not; I do that for myself; no matter what.
I learn the only way to truly survive this world, is to be my own parent, specifically father; as my mother did an excellent job of that; and my own best friend.
So after you provide this remark I do go with the flow; and celebrate over 2000 miles of dance walking in under a year at Super-Walmart not an element where the so called “uppity” folks play; and as always with the naysayers in life about any of my creative OUT OF THE BOX SPIRIT; IT ONLY PUSHES ME FARTHER INTO THE ELEMENT OF TOTALLY FREE CREATIVE SPIRIT; that in this case is the core soul of all poetry: dance. I did a remarkable job at Walmart with a crowd of folks videotaping me. Thanks. Sincerely, you helped to inspire that.
To put it more clearly, dear, I did not fall off a turnip truck. I did graduate with three degrees at close to the top of my class; survive over two decades in an incredibly multi-tasked job with the government; and survive for the time being, now, some of the documented worst case scenarios in modern medicine for a patient actually recovering; where there is no prognostication of that happening.
In other words, I am usually very good at following direction.
And also Lawyer material; and no actually I do not break rules that are logical.
What I do, is point out hypocrisy when I see it.
That my friend, is the fearless part of me; and usually why I don’t last in any social clubs.
I call it as I see it.
Yes, I make mistakes.
But today, is not that day.
I’m not sure what your real issue is.
But it is not this poetic expression; per the six themed elements listed above; unless you did not read the prompt; which is not a logical scenario to me, since your wrote it.
Have a nice day.
This if par for the course for me, so far in this life.
But no; I do not play golf.
