• Clarity - The Road Less Travelled

  Beyond the horizon, around the next turn, / The pathways are misty, terrain unclear. To left or to right? Forward or back? / No signs to guide you, nobody near. All routes are suspects, their destinies hidden, / You desperately search for a hint or a clue. In quests for the answers none can be found, / The roads far ahead are sheltered from view. Summon your courage, your faith and your hope, / Persue and explore. This is your future, the rest of your life… Nothing is what it seems. ___ I just returned from a trip down the Great Ocean Road, followed by four days away with work. I’m exhausted but invigorated. So many moments of clarity along the way. In fact, a continuous ongoing enlightening seems to be happening for me right now. Life has so much to offer. It’s taken me a long time to get to the point where I can enjoy life as freely and exuberantly as I do. There have been a lot of lessons learned, to get me to the point where I can see the wonder in …well, pretty much anything. My current philosophy, basically, is - Destiny only takes care of so much. It’s up to you to make the choices, to decide which path to follow. So, I am trusting in the universe, but feeling strong enough and clear enough (thanks to some time away) to make some choices for myself too.

  i’m that unknown soldier / they tried to put in the grave / i wouldn’t behave / to the ground i’ll be no slave / my spirit was rising / as the dirt hit the casket / i laughed, and looked right at it / peeped the funeral,and who was there / i knew some people didn’t care / saw my people pouring out a little liquor / for the brothers, and sisters not there / my heart told me to wipe a tear / then with a quick breeze i disappeared / saw demons, and angels talking shit / just like on earth their mouthes never quit / an old man was selling suits for judgement day / i told him i’d go as i came / turned around, and saw a world insane / this must be heaven / nothing to lose / nothing to gain / little children running with ease / not once did i hear the word please / the women so pretty i damn near cried / i knew it, but i had to try / then out of darkness the right one appeared / hold up! this is too easy i feared!!! / was this a setup, or a simple test? / for the brothers, and sisters / who have been put to rest / all of a sudden i heard laughter / a voice from above said chill son / your work here is done / time to make room for the next one / into the light i rose so slick / the next guy thought he saw a magic trick / with wings on my shoulder / i took one last glance / on my grave / it was engraved / a true unknown soldier / forever brave / smiled, and looked at his grave / to this ground he’ll be no slave

• Arty Baby

  ... I suppose it was always meant to be. !http://photos-e.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sf2p/v307/17/72/500764832/n500764832_759356_4873….

  ... I suppose it was always meant to be. chuckles Yesterday during a little clear out I stumbled upon some of my old drawings and also a handful of photos. It’s amazing what emotions photos can evoke… Though when I saw this image a huge smile stretched across my face. hehe. I must be no older then 8 or 9 months here… and i was already keen to put pen to paper! I hope you all have a lovely day

  Searching / searching through life / as it passes me by / looking for light / looking for that place / for which i belong to as i walk past the many places / searching / wondering which is mine / searching / which is me / which is my destiny till the day comes / on which my mind opens / to the one place i desire to be / i realise it was not light i searched for / but darkness / the engulfing embrace or the dark it whispers in my ears / this is where you belong / and i think to myself / this is my home / my place / my destiny

  10/27/07 / Today I realized my goals. Today I received encouragement. Today I received the knowledge that I invoked. Today I received the creativity that I invoked. Today I realized just how passionate my art really is. Today I realized just how different my art is. Today I realized that I must remain non “main stream.” Today I realized that I enjoy participating in this passion..this journey…for free…Today I embraced my family of fellow artists and patrons of the art…Today I appreciated everyone that took the time out of their busy schedule to appreciate the beauty that surrounds me. Today I welcomed and invited those who were willing to see my world. Today was marvelous. Today was furstrating. Today was exhilerating. Today was my day. It began a little rocky with insecurities and fears, self conscioussnes and doubt, with inadequaticies. But something that my father always told me rang loud and true in my head… Winners never quit…and quitters never win. Today I won. I won spiritually, I won creatively, I won because people took a personal interest in guiding me and imparting knowledge on me to make me better. Today I won because people took time and involved themselves in me. Today I won because people felt my spirit. Today I won because I found that many people are ashamed of passion. Today I won because even though they were ashamed, bashful, embarassed, they still had to look. They were drawn to my table. Today I won because my mother accepted me and my lifestyle. Today I won because she proved that she is undoubtedly my number one fan. Today was the first time that I have hugged my mother in over two years. Today is the first time that I really felt apart of something bigger than myself. Today I embraced art. I have made love to art, I have desired art, but today I embraced it. I held onto it as if it depended on life and death. Today I did not settle for less than my value. Today I held strong. Today I became Sheenae. Today I became Peace beyond Passion. Today I understood exactly what that meant. I went into this embracing realism. I went into this not expecting to gain a thing. Today I gained knowledge. Today I gained added passion. Today I found my niche. While participating in such an outstanding event, I looked around, I looked within myself, I acknowledged my passion. I accepted my “status.” My muse has guided me places that I never thought possible. My butterfly fluttered all around me all day figuratively and literally. Today I realized that while my muse may be dead to me she is alive in spirit. Today I realized from a character that yes “damn my muse does have it like that.” Today I realized that her spirit drew people to me, they wanted her, they embraced her, they left her in her flightly solace. They wondered who she was. They wanted to know why she was surrounded by flames, they wanted to own her…Even on canvas she was not having that. The wind blew her all different ways, but she never fell. The she jumped and fought back she attracted the old and the young, the white and the black, she attracted men and women…she made them wonder…she made them think…. Intertwinement caused conflict, it caused discussion, it caused heated arguements..People yearned for that kind of embrace…People yearned for that kind of passion. People also left it in its solace… Window to my soul made people ask me questions. It made people wonder what could be so cruel that it could bring about that many tears from one eye. It made people look into my soul…It too remained in peace… A little boy spoke to me today…He stated that I should put that away…He stated that I should put my work up…I asked him why…He could not produce an answer…Today another little boy…analyzed different as night and day…He stated that two people were having passionate sex on the beach…He stated that they loved each other but that something was wrong…He stated that it was beautiful…He was no more than 12…A young white woman stated that my use of color was remarkable…she questioned where I went to school…She commented that I am far beyond my years…She wants me to donate my work to the Crisis Center…I accepted….For if my art can help others through pain…That would fullfill my greatest desire… Two women stated that Pandora was about sex, lies, and greed…They were correct…They stated that the woman was shocked she was frightened…yet she continued to open the box…They stated that they were feeling something internally from looking at that…. Two women looked at intertwinement…they stated that my girlfriend is very blessed to have such a passionate woman in her life…They stated that as long as two hearts are as one all is well…They smiled and moved to the next vendor… Today I saw my work through others eyes…Today I saw myself through others eyes…And I rejoice in the person that I have become… I should be in the Birmingham News…My mother and I…”fresh faces”...in Birmingham…It will be in the lifestyle section…I do not know when…but I am so grateful for the opportunity… A man spoke to my mother…He imparted knowledge to her about me…He gave her advice…He told her to love me no matter what…She stated that she would… I am rejoicing…I am elated…my eyes are once again welling with tears of joy….
