Or, put another way
I might alternately have called this one my creative resume. I maintain to this day that aside from wonderful time with those we love, art is one of the very few truly empirically-unwasted ways to spend a day of our life — or an hour. (You do NOT want to get me started on money!) ;o)
I remember Artie Shaw once saying, (I paraphrase) “Is my work important? I don’t care about that, that’s for somebody else to worry about, I’m much too busy making the stuff.”
Which ain’t to say I consider any of my work important – but workING? Yup!
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Besides writing a good poem you are also the most handsome.
