I've decided that success and failure are one in the same, it's just perspective.

I agree with Wilde, art begins as an expression of the lonely ego (those who don't fit are always the greatest narcicists by default!) and until praise ceases to be a principle reason for the creation of art it cannot be honest. That said I still need praise, does that make me a hack? Perhaps. I have come to terms with being a hack, it seems the logical first step to becoming something else.

I love that you called me "cheeky"!

Hey, love the ditty. And you said you didn't write concisely. Hard to argue with the likes of Wilde. I don't think that poetry written for the public is necessarily dishonest. I like to say that poetry never lies and rarely tells the whole truth. Thanks for the kind compliments bye the way. I had a sweet kind of a muse for a while. I'll post another one from that time in today's blog.
