Today I sat and wrote more poetry for the show I'm writing. (Yes, I'm writing a musical. Call me crazy.) While I was writing, it was hard for me to tell exactly what was on my mind. How can I write poetry if I don't even know what's on my mind? It's very hard. The show I'm writing, it's almost about me. An exaggerated version of myself. It's hard because when I'm writing, I can't figure out what I want people to feel about the story, or how I can change them with my words. I have so many ideas to pack into my show but it has to be told in simple terms. So, what I've realized about myself today is that I need some grounds to stand on. Sure, everybody is fighting over rights and wrongs. Morals. Nobody's ever going to agree on the same thing because when it boils down to it, one person's moral may be another person's death wish. I need grounds to stand on. I need to find out what I think on issues of life, love, and art. I need to stand for something instead of being vague. I think this will help me complete my show. Personally, I think everybody needs to be able to stand for themselves but still have mild acceptance and respect for someone who may be different. Disrespect should be made illegal.
