Had it all when you had the grade, you thought you had life all made? maybe travelled to many places in your hands held several aces. you market yourself left and right fish for agents that don't bite; romance stones that glow in the dark realize many offers are merely larks. To live the fullest, wake with glee but read sorry scripts, work for free? while peoples of worldly sore spots fight... uneasiness for many to continue their plights. How many more times must I go on stage hold crowd attention, work off my rage; market myself to artistic perfection travel the unknown with no predilection. Thought that you had life made but you were hardly of any age; played ball in the schoolyard then protected at home by mother hen. [This message has been edited by ecrivan (04-04-2002 06:38 PM).] |

  (sigh) This is a powerful poem about the pursuit of well-being and answers, sweet friend, I too feel that sometimes we all may think we know everything then something else appeals to us that we strive to discover! (big hugggsssss) I think we can all be restless but as long as we strive to find what makes us happy, in the end we will be satisfied and fortunate! We all love you so much, sweet friend, this is very poignant! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Martin, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

How many more times must I go on stage hold crowd attention, work off my rage; market myself to artistic perfection travel the unknown with no predilection. This sounds very autobiographical, Martin... I had no idea that you were so restless... A great write, as usual  ~restless hugs~copyright2002 Lyra Nesius |

yes it is somewhat autobiographical..the artistic milieu here doesn't 'pay' ..you know the usual..but it digs deeper |

ecrivan, Gotta say...I never had it all, but I'd try to live with it.  Room for exploration here it seems. Nice write. |
