creative process

Creatives under thirty need vast compliment stroking.
From  the hollow back biter bench who merely are joking.

Creatives over forty start to care less.
From the flagrant song of critic ridiculers.

Age belies a tough thickened skin.
Rips & tears from the spite fueled din.

A hued out thought , a tangible sketch.
A creative spark to release an itch.

A voice born from troubled thought.
A life lived from this day wrought.

Unwavering resolve a creative quest.

Duty bound to put concepts to rest.

Not for stroking or design acclaim.
To simply now ward off a mind thats insane.
