Blah, I HATE WRITING!

mood: annoyed

I had an idea the other night after listening to this old song I would dance too in the clubs.  It's title is Fired Up, by the Funky Green dogs.

Here's a sample of the lyrics, that kinda got me started on this whole thing ...

Well when I see you
You make me loose all control
Like a fire burning deep in my soul
And when I feel you
It's like I'm in heaven
It's goes on forever like a
diamond or gold.


Now my problem is that I can see in my head what this piece is gonna be about, and atleast I have "some" of it written, but I keep running into the same problem I always run into, it's not perfect, and I'm using the same words over and over again.  I can't get translated what's going on in my head and the pictures I see to the written word, and it's DRIVING me batty, just so y'all know. 

Maybe I need to change to set up leading into the first line I've gotten already, and work from there.  What ever it is, it's needs to work itself out. 

Blah!


have a good day, I'm going to bang my head on my desk for a few hours, and hopefully that will loosen the thoughts up in there, so I can write this.


*sigh*

You can do it! I know how hard it is to make everything sound just right, but it will all fall into place. :)

"Tattoo me," I like that!!

Actually, I wouldn't go back and change the first part of your poem. What I would do is write down what you see in your head. Don't worry about overusing words, don't worry about repetition or any kind of imperfection. The important thing is to capture on the paper the best rendition you can of what you see in your head. You can go back and change it later, and once you have the image down, you can go look up different words.

Oh, I caught that -- that you posted lyrics that had inspired you, and that you intended to go on and write something down through the inspiration. But you're talking about that poem that you posted the first bit of awhile ago, right, that you want to take it out and finish it but you're not sure how? I know that one of my best story ideas ever came to me in a song. The lyric was, I stand, with my face to the wind, with the storm beating down / on this sacred ground / I stand, on the grace that I've known / for what I believe, then I won't stand alone, and I had this image of a blank plain and the sun and the wind, and I wrote an entire story from it. So if I were you I'd write down your poem lines in the same way, going off the lyric explanation.

And I look forward to talking about it! :)

Nevermind Else. If I survive the night, without damaging myself in any way shape or form. I'll be lucky ...

This is just not a good day, and people who say they care, are definately not acting like they do.

It's also not a poem I'm trying to write.
