What's the Math?

I remember when the art of poetry used to mean something then the mode switched and every median began pushing half assed art

These days things aren't adding up got me feeling like I'm in a division of my own reading these sub tracks in multiples

We've lost our values we see quantity as quality but that's less than the greater purpose so we pedal out high volumes while dumbing down our audience 

Now a days basic is fundamentally accepted and complex, while complex is just too difficult so we refuse to cipher through chambers of secrets

I remember when poetry was putting your best foot forward to make a stand

granted. each expression is an attempt to Do something to the hearts and minds of someone. everyone who might be driven to create some form of connection may not always succeed ...what others choose to read or not to read ...is a seed they have planted. it is not to agree or disagree. DO Your magic. the pen to paper is half the task and if the person with a vision of art makes a match with interest it is complete, if not ...it is some attempt to rise up from the dust of apathy and get in tune with the nature within their grasp. which is the math. the best of which might drive another or multiples of the same to put forth effort in the game and make beautiful music all the same... so they say, "nothing ventured..." Hopefully, you will recover or reenter the work that you no longer find present on this portal. hope you find challenges enough to make your contribution and let it stand for itself, so that there will be no shadow of a doubt of what You are capable of producing ...even if you choose to preserve your Best work in another venue, say one which you use to pay the bills. not sure if the quantity applies to me(who else drops such)since peoples interests vary and what some or others might have in common, or seek to Do is different... by all means this realm is open to command with your best feet. make it work. do the time. drop the rhythm. unleash the rhyme... like a pack of foaming at the mouth pit bulls... or an angelic choir ascending from the deep. How ever you may choose. So do

"The Universe is listening be careful what you say in it." Electronica I respect the art of poetry/rhyme too much that I wouldn't dare put a half assed effort out there. Just wish that everyone else would do the same. We often see providing readers or listeners with tons of productions but doing so waters down the quality. I'm one for truth and some times that truth can be a harsh reality.

harsh reality drives some to produce at their best. email is a great media for personal suggestions/criticism as we all should like to see the best of what there is. being a fan of history, there are many correlations to be made for collaboration and conflict. i welcome an opportunity to work with you.
