The freedom of pointless creation!
The pressure
Of creating for someone…
To achieve a specific purpose…
Deadline driven with boundary walls…
Why not create,
For Creativity’s sake!
Letting the ideas flow through,
as something unexpected takes form.
What seems pointless now,
Will emerge as something for someone.
Sometime in the future!
The freedom of scribbling, scratching
Chipping and converting
Ambiguous thoughts into inscrutable works of art.
The joy of a river that follows no fences
Creating billabongs of work
Left behind for a few to enjoy
Not everything needs a purpose
Not everything needs an audience
When you create for yourself
Without limits.
Make something today, just because…
