Welcome to the World

A Creation Process

This was a drawing exercise turned writing exercise, above is what became of the artwork that inspired this poem.

Poems like these come to me when I am drawing. I observe what I am drawing, and what is going through my mind as I draw it. Most of the time my mind is blank until the drawing is discernable, and the story comes out of me and pours out like a waterfall. These poems and drawings reflect elements of my subconscious.

November baby,

like an ultrasound,

I see you in blacks, whites, and greys.

Struggling to find completion

Searching…

eyes wide shut

escaping

Are you fully open?

or slightly ajar?

asleep?

or awake?

bursting?

or blooming?
