Artfully Ill
16 years ago
As a final effort of the day I thought I'd write something about the artistic. That's what this journal should be used for, I believe.
I'll give you a little tour of what happens when I get physically ill to the point where my perspective on art (and specifically my own) gets resetted, and somehow I feel like I've gotten so low that I can only go up. I always see spiritual inspiration all around me when I'm throwing up. I invariably feel like putting out the first thing I think up when I'm recovered - and sometimes before that if it's not a migraining sort of illness. (Thankfully that's not the case now; rather a piece of my tooth fell off and my stomach keeps attacking me, so it's just a bad health drain plus pain.)
So, I'm wondering if anyone can identify with this strange pattern. Tell me about your artistic illnesses and ill artistries.

You want to eat that word.
And then you get rich and, like, y'know, famous? Yeah?
Until it attracts flies, anyway ... like.
