Stephen Satterfield Instagram – I remember I used to dream about @whetstonemagazine
Right around the time they said
“Print is dead.”
Well, shit.
I guess we resuscitated it.
I wanted it to be so badly
the agitation made me make it.
That is the part that many miscalculated in those early evaluations.
Sending salutations.
So many catastrophes
I thought I’d never get past
that on these occasions,
when the ink and paper arrive stacked and packed
I can garuntee you that
I will be weeping,
Somewhere sobbing at the improbability of it all.
Visionary precedes luminary
and that is lonely.
All I had was
This lil light of mine
long before I was shining
This work is my home.
Learning to make space for embrace
instead of racing to
take it to the next place.
Got me in a emo mood
and filled with gratitude.
You become who you pursue
And I’m really that dude.
