Jena Malone Instagram – You spend your days tolling
In a phantom kitchen
Knuckles locked
In delivering
outcomes
That
Nobody is getting served
It’s a kind want
A gentle need
Of completion
An Ingredient to the porcelain plate
Your an artist
You need the place settings, the bigger stage
How else does one transmute
The weight of living ?
The ache of togetherness?
The gift of rage?
Your told
Again and again
No one’s making movies
like that anymore
It’s a different time
We are all in a different space
Then the emails come courting
Amazon is hiring , postmates needs drivers ,
RSVP for an early grave
But you
Darling child
Just wanna tell a story ,
That haunts the other children
Into singing
songs of remembering
A different way

Tiny thoughts on lifting so many creative projects with no outcomes in sight. Wanting completion and a space of sharing but the funding is like a pesticide killing out all the original taste. Having so many stories burning in your hands there is no medicine to soothe the blight. And what a beautiful ruin being a creative is today.
