Here is an unpublished sonnet I wrote 2 years ago about missing acting onstage. Lights Up I get excited when I see a stage, And more so if the set is dressed as well. It’s been a year or more since the curtain’s paged, And I miss it nearly more than life itself. I cannot remit forever till old age Dopamine dominant recurrences Fleeting passion-driven reverberates And equally been a source of wealth, Makes subtle, the annoyances today, Each exchange, shifting orbits, overwhelms, The lights, fire orange, down center stage, Hard to inspire mixtures locuras, But I stay seated in the audience, The stage unlit, where I’ll return again. #sonnet #acting #theatre #poetry #poetrycommunity #writing #artist https://www.instagram.com/p/CSeyMP1AJun/?utm_medium=tumblr

What’s Next?

I’m bad at planning. Just read any of my unfinished manuscripts and you can see the lack of planning. Hell, even this post wasn’t well planned. But I’m trying to push through anyway. Because how will I ever improve? Iteration. Don’t stop when things get tough or uncomfortable. In the past, when things got tough in a particular field. I bailed. I thought, ‘This just isn’t what I was meant to do’.…
