Am I pumping them out like a production line, or am I letting them slip by? A new exercise in art. Deadlines. Stress. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Pressures that I have chosen for myself. Does this take away from or give too my art? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;And there is no true answer. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;Turmoil, I both recognize and enjoy. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;So time sits by me, unaware of the nails in my neck.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;This art is a collection of masterpieces. Every stroke planned and replanned. Math and science entangled with color and design. Brilliant works of art, surpassing all others in skill and beauty. Each painting a show unto itself. Priceless.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: center;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;A conceited boys dream patched together with childish fingers. Each painting worse then the one next to it. Unemotional trash. A bunch of selfish paintings, reeking of teen angst. It’s garbage on these walls. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;Questionably sitting in answers I don’t remember. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;I don’t believe in your decision. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;I won’t subscribe to that kind of care. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;But I do what I can. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;I must. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;Create because I must. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;Because it burns. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;And I can’t be bothered to rule it down. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;Letting all of my self pour over in and of the many ways I know. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Is this is all I know?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7389017933332844942-5561097075929659825?l=torturesongstage7.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://torturesongstage7.blogspot.com/feeds/5561097075929659825/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7389017933332844942&amp;postID=5561097075929659825' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7389017933332844942/posts/default/5561097075929659825'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7389017933332844942/posts/default/5561097075929659825'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://torturesongstage7.blogspot.com/2007/03/blog-post_15.html' title=''/><author><name>Daren luc Sasges</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h203/darensasges/komasket/pigmug.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_SquL7te7vMs/Rfm8GOJWmYI/AAAAAAAAABY/moAmo19AZWs/s72-c/stage7.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
