Day 16 – 2020 Creativity Project
Today is one of the days I work as a Copy Editor. It is a limited engagement with a few hours, but when I am on, it is demanding. So this is rushed.
I finished the poem in the wee hours to read at the memorial service, and it was approved without change. Got the awe-inspiring stamp!
I have thought for a while that I could do poems on demand, and this proved my hypothesis. There is this raw idea I have been noodling – but I am a coward.
I have been faulted as not living up to my potential, if I could believe I had any, maybe I could achieve it.
I need to color my hair, pick out clothes, finish proofing the magazine, so this is a done deal. If the person who requested the poem approves, I will post it sometime soon.
I just hope while I am reading tomorrow at the service that I do not stumble over my own words too severely. The other poets who will be read are superstars from times ago.
Yeah, you all take care. God Bless.
