Sitting with artists.

Drinking Seize the Day.

Hearing ideas.

Sensing stifled thoughts.

Frustration simmers

just below the surface.

As always.

All of us just want to do what we love,

but politics always come to play.

Challenge us.

Keep us in line.

But if we are as creative as we feel we are,

we will find ways to work around

and within

the system.

To do what we love

regardless of rules.
