What’s a poem,
when a picture
can speak
without a single
letter.
What’s a writer,
then,
but only a
sort-of artist.
A phony.
A fake.
A lazy
fucking
hack.
I’m ok with that.
I’ve been called
worse.

What do you believe? If you want my opinion, I know for certain that while what you believe makes your experience, it’s more a matter of feeling or vibration for what you create. If you truly feel pain, and are affirming pain, then that is your art, painful. If you are simply expressing words while feeling peaceful or neutral, then you are acting, which too is art. Nothing was ever as it is, nor is it otherwise.
Life is your artwork. Is your art judgemental? That causes pain. Is it kind and loving? That engenders pleasure. What do you choose? Our art is what we choose it to be.
How do you define these words? Lazy, artist, fake, authentic, soft, kind, loving, hack, patience, learning?
I see a fake artist as someone who is judging their learning process. I see a lazy writer as someone who could do more but doesn’t quite do that yet. I see a hack as someone who might want to choose to believe they are prolific and amazing.
What you think you become. Believe it and so it shall be.

My opinion is that doubt exists and may exist for eternity as a thought form or vibrational field in the mind. My opinion is that doubt is a disguise of fear. Try not to fight with doubt. When it ceases to be interesting to you, you will stop looking at it, and also stop being angry at it. Curious, eh? Don’t fight with doubt lest your beautiful creations, both with explicit lyrics and gentle ones, won’t be revealed to people that so want to receive you and them.

I’ve had similar, inner-dialogues about being a “writer”. My friend yesterday proclaimed to a group of people that I was indeed a writer. I cringed in embarrassment feeling like a hack myself. You have a voice and a style that’s all your own. It’s enviable and makes me think you are not a “hack”.
