You've got to work






Don't let your yesterday 
pave the way to more future dramatic play! 
Remember this Scientific Fact... 
by the time it reaches your senses 
it's already an artifact... 
Plug Your Input back into the Source 
and Affect Change In Your Life From That Space... 

Kurt Johnson

Sure, the rhyming is corny. The scansion and meter are atrocious. You could also make a case that artmaking is often better after dramatic play. This was taken from a quick Facebook post so its shortcomings can be forgiven. (I don't know the author. He was a Friend of a Friend.) 

But the concept is sound: Don't let blockage or bad critiques or poor responsesor fear—chill your motivation. Go back to why you do it in the first placethe sourcesally forth and do what you do that only you can do. That voodoo that you do so well. 

If for no other reason because for todayor any day, reallythe greatest success we have is for us to just keep working.
