Current Writing

Introduction

I often write about where I am with my writing and why I am at this place, so this is just another one of those. I write these to hopefully give people ideas and let them know that whatever they are doing is the right thing for them.

I suppose this could be a critique of my current situation.

I have included The Who's "Guitar and Pen" (which I often do for these pieces, and yesterday I bought a vinyl copy of Pete Townshend's "Who Came Next" inspired by the guru, Meher Baba, and the first song inspired this poem:

What Am I Up To?

One of the reasons I am writing this is that my last poem, which was for a Vocal challenge, may have given the impression that I am in a bad place. That is not the situation; it was more observational. which is why I included this line:

You Never Notice A Good Referee

The poem was minimalist, no formatting, no emojis, no video, and a minimalist image to illustrate disappearing words.

I still feel that I am lazy if I write poetry, but even a haiku can take a lot of work, and a sestina definitely does take a lot of work, but after writing a poem, I feel I should write fiction or some kind of article.

I have just published four poems in a row, and that is something I seldom do, and some of those poems did take a lot of work.

My main project at the moment is the book with Angie Livingstone (The Glittering Fox), and if you don't know what that is, here is a recent poem which will appear in it (this is one of those last four).

I feel I need to write some more fiction, and I know something will inspire me, although recently it has mainly been My Muse, Art, album covers and music, and they are not bad inspirations to have.

Conclusion

Thank you so much for giving me your time, and I hope you found something useful in here.

This is the second piece I have published today, and when I got up, I was not expecting to write at all.
