I can’t remember what first came together
to create the initial flicker
but puberty stoked the flames
ink on paper
celluloid stories
to create the initial flicker
but puberty stoked the flames
ink on paper
celluloid stories
sexy silly sad little love songs
the sparkle of a beautiful woman
the smile of a handsome man
all fed the fire
I hunt for food everywhere
because I starve
always the hunger
my constant companion
always prowling
digging
scrounging
for nourishment
the ravenous
exquisite
craving
that keeps me creating more

I think I'll be rewriting this one in the future as I'd like to make it more intense. Didn't succeed this time around but only had 1 day. Haha!
ReplyDeleteI did not get a clear singular picture of what inspires you - an inventory of inspiration makers. Is this what you intended?
ReplyDeleteYes.
