Adrift with the wind
never touching the ground
illuminating the night
If ever we need found
your light is mine
together we are bound
tiny stars of the night
Jewels of a crown.
misty moon lit sky
Just you and me
dew drop tear touch
gently dancing on leaves
Gliding gingerly
Just above the trees
phosphorous dance
upon the dark canopy.
Wish had something to write.
I’m thinking with all of my might.
When pen hits the paper,
Thoughts vanish like vapor
The black hole is eating all light.
I wish I had a cause for fight.
A riot or rag to incite…
Something must be to blame…
Someone for me to shame
For my self-discontentment tonight.
I wish I could see what is right.
I’m observing with all my insight.
Commenting on paper,
Is most certainly safer,
Then pursuing what living invites!
I am a huge fan of the the Late Ryan Larkin’s Animation. 1943-2007. Ryan was a Canadian who was influential on modern multi media art. His 1968 academy award nominated “Walking” is is as fluid and colorful as life itsself. Its both Musical and urban. Ryan:
Sadly, Ryan Larkin was drawn into cocaine and alcohol abuse. His creative life was short and he slipped into obscurity and homelessness.
Animator Chris Landreth created the following short based on recorded conversations with Ryan Larkin…
exposing an Artists worst fear… The fears of failure
There will always be people who want to tell you
what you should do what you should be try to dissolve your individuality
louder and louder they will shout and never tell you what they are about.
