Possession, depression,
foster feelings that produce
masterpieces.
I feel, therefore I am.
My feelings weigh me down
they don’t positively rise.

The dragging despondent despair
dredges dreams
that hide in the subconscious
and surface in sleep.
A light is revealed
that needs an artist’s attention
to illuminate and illustrate.

“Freedom is to be in possession of yourself.”[1]
“Become what thou art.”[2]
