motivation

to thine own self be true

“I told the boys early on, play it the way you play it, and if it’s good, if it’s entertaining, then folks will come to hear you. If not, then we’ll sit here on the front porch and entertain ourselves.”

Jim Avett – father of Scott and Seth Avett, aka the Avett Brothers

My Conversation

Recreation.
Relaxation.
That’s all I need
for motivation.

Observation.
Contemplation.
It’s my way
of restoration.

Calculation.
Conjugation.
Created for
communication.

Perspiration.
Inspiration.
What once was play
is avocation.

Acclamation.
Adoration.
Distorts the mind
and expectation.

Preparation.
Presentation.
Hoping for
more confirmation.

Indignation.
Resignation.
Subject the dream
to termination.

Devastation.
Isolation.
Kills the soul
with suffocation.

Then.
None of it matters.

Exhumation.
Restoration.
Education.
Innovation.
Fascination.
Elevation.
Vindication.
Liberation.

Conversation.
Tribulation.
It’s just for me,
my celebration.
