The Player -- a Poem for the Sunday Muse
Somewhere around nothing - by Brooze |
Help from the ______?
If an orchestra plays in the wilds
will anybody hear
If I play my bass in an open field
is there just one to feel
If I hit a home run, empty bleacher
will any give a hoot
Practice is practice must have a reward
hears, feels, or gives a hoot
If I become president, queen, or pope
why was I doing that
Athlete, player, comedian covets
your applause means a lot
When I'm trying to become a writer
I'd like some readers please
And dear reader would you please feedback give
comment, critique or praise

An artiste is complete with an audience. So yes playing in the eild might be an occasionally nice activity but i think even then the musician wants to be heard.
Happy Sunday
Much❤love
LOL, I feel as if we were in similar headspaces this week. I rarely think of drafting as practice, but it's an interesting thought, challenging yourself to get the best shape for an idea.
Yes we do want to be read if we are a writer. I thought I commented already but I guess my comment didn't post. Oh technology it is our friend and foe. Have a good Sunday my friend!

Yes, I believe all artists crave an audience, someone to read, listen and feel. If only for a brief moment - someone to give a hoot ~ Truedessa
I agree that art is an interactive process at some point, many times after the artist is long gone. Without the artist there is no audience and without the audience art cannot live.
