Write whatever you normally write about, and weave in a book quote, film quote, or song lyric that’s been sticking with you this week.
Photographers, artists, poets: show us INSPIRATION.
Well here’s a poem made completely from other people’s songs.
I’ve included the performers names after their quotes.
Just ignore the names when you read it

Yesterday all my troubles seemed so far away,
now it looks as though they’re here to stay.
Still
Today is the greatest day I’ve ever known.
Can’t wait for tomorrow, I might not have that long.
Send me a sign -For too long you kept me waiting
Send me a sign – From the eternal skies
I got what I wanted
I got just what I always wanted
Everything is crumbling around me
Feels like the ending of the times
Or is it all just a sign?
I lost my job to a machine.
It’s true!
I’m free
I’m free
and freedom tastes of reality.

What does it mean?
In this post:
Might As Well Jump: Into the Unknown
I spoke about my need to release my inner artist & considered
giving up my job to dedicate myself fully to the arts.
My laptop, with all my teaching materials had just been stolen.
I said I was waiting for another sign, well today I got two.
The graphics card on my brand new laptop has malfunctioned & ……
I was told at a meeting this morning that the language school which employs me
is closing the centre from which I receive most of my students.
They are moving on to electronic, internet based courses …
Leaving me to get on with my art & poetry & writing & photography & ….
I guess that means I’ll be going on a diet too & …
Possibly that nomadic lifestyle is closer than I thought.
Still even if I do end up starving on the street …
At least …
I did it my way

Thank you & Goodnight
